About Gorilla Manchester
The rumble of trains overhead adds to the raw energy at Gorilla Manchester, where we've transformed the railway arches on 54-56 Whitworth Street West into one of the city's most versatile party spaces. Our exposed brickwork and high ceilings create the perfect industrial backdrop for everything from intimate gatherings to full-scale productions. Our Stage + Club area is where the real magic happens. We can pack in 600 people standing, and with our full PA system and state-of-the-art sound and lighting rig, plus an extendable stage, we've hosted everything from thumping club nights to elegant wedding receptions. The space transforms completely depending on what you need – corporate presentations by day, live bands by night. Upstairs in our Gin Parlour, the mood shifts entirely. We've filled this mezzanine retreat with over 50 rare gins, draped it in velvet furnishings, and hung chandeliers that catch the light just right. It's become a favorite spot for pre-event cocktails or more intimate celebrations. Need something more private? The Studio comes with its own bar, projector, and complete AV setup. We've seen it work brilliantly for corporate workshops, birthday parties, and even small wedding ceremonies. The private entrance means your guests can come and go without crossing through the main venue. Our kitchen keeps everyone fed throughout events, whether that's our award-winning breakfasts for morning conferences, chargrilled burgers during evening parties, or Sunday roasts for daytime celebrations. The main bar stocks craft beers alongside our cocktail menu, and we can arrange dedicated bar service for your event space. Each area has its own toilets and can be configured independently, so whether you're planning a 50-person workshop or a 600-guest party, we've got the flexibility to make it work.
