The partner's word

The Monastery Manchester is a magnificent Grade II* listed building designed by Augustus Pugin, once listed among the world’s 100 most endangered sites. Following extensive restoration, it now serves as a stunning and unique venue for corporate, social, and cultural events. The architecture is impressive, featuring beautiful partially-restored original elements that create a memorable and atmospheric backdrop. The venue is managed by the charitable trust that saved it from dereliction 23 years ago, with all event profits supporting community outreach and ongoing restoration. The Monastery offers versatile internal spaces including the Great Nave, a large open room with capacity for up to 650 guests, ideal for conferences, gala dinners, and team-building events. The Private Chapel provides a more intimate setting for smaller meetings or conferences, while the Learning Space is a bright, modern room suited for training courses and lectures. Located just minutes from Manchester city centre, the venue benefits from good transport links and premises parking, making it accessible for guests. Overall, The Monastery Manchester combines historic grandeur with modern facilities, making it a distinctive choice for a wide range of events.
