Why should I use VenueScanner?


There is no lack of websites covering hall venue hire in Manchester. In fact, there are loads of them. So why should you ignore everyone else and pick VenueScanner as the place to find your space?

You should use VenueScanner because we have serious event-planning credentials. When our founder, Rebecca Kelly, first thought up the idea of VenueScanner, she wanted to create a genuinely useful resource that matched PAs and party planners with amazing venues. We started in London, and have since grown into towns and cities all over the country. International expansion is just around the corner.

We help people to find venues for all kinds of events. The introvert planning a small gathering for her 40th birthday uses VenueScanner, as does the yoga teacher looking for somewhere to teach classes each week.

At the other end of the scale we help businesses to find 500-capacity conference venues and plan memorable team away-day experiences. Whatever event you’re planning, you can bet that our experienced team have sourced the venue for functions much like it before.

We have a selection of the best halls Manchester has to offer, and it’s easy for you to compare each option until you find the right space for you. Just tell us a little about the event you’re organising: the function type, your budget, area of town and preferred date, and we’ll return a shortlist of potential venues pronto.


Hall hire in Manchester gives you total flexibility

Well it sounds like hiring a hall in Manchester may be perfect for you and it just so happens that we have the best selection to offer. VenueScanner will also show you all your options at once rather than forever trawling through different google pages trying to find contact details. We’ve got it all in one space!

Halls often come with all the tech that you need to make a successful business event, whether that be a presentation, a conference or a team brainstorming session. King’s House Conference Centre for example delivers everything that you could need which makes it ideal for seminars or training sessions. 

If you’re looking for a hall to hire which is on the grander scale or with a bit of extra pizazz then check out the Engine Hall at the People’s History Museum which is certain to blow you away for a special event. With it’s double height ceilings and flexible set up space this is a hall in Manchester you don’t want to miss out on. Or look into hiring one of our most popular venues, The Message Enterprise Centre. This amazing space can lend itself perfectly to all business events and transform into a wonderful wedding venue (we wouldn’t advise you combine the two but they could if you needed)! They are also happy to be one of our speediest responders on the platform so by messaging them through the VenueScanner inbox, or calling using the call button, you’ll get an answer asap - who likes waiting around when there are events to plan?!


Finding space for product launches in Manchester


One of our most common events thrown in halls in Manchester is for a product launch. Whether it be an established brand or a new business looking to launch onto the market, halls are a great place to start. Studio Bee is a great example, an amazing space with loads of natural light and plenty of facilities on site. Whitworth Locke offers a cool, thought-provoking design and are experts in events like product launches and fashion shows. For bigger scale launches the National Football Museum has amazing facilities. We know football isn’t for everyone (maybe that’s not true in Manchester!) but you don’t need to be a football fan to appreciate this amazing space that not only looks great but has everything that you need to make your event a success. Or look back into giving back and host your event at Creative Together which is not only a great space but a registered charity supporting people with learning disabilities, mental health needs, Autism or other support needs in Manchester.
