What an asset this venue is to Manchester, so much going on and highly accessible to everyone. I've seen several things here now and have bought the membership, which gets you priority bookings, amongst other things. The staff are first class, the productions will blow your mind and the food and drinks are fantastic. Highly recommend

Went to explore the building which is near the river - gorgeous setting and building with lots of interesting interiors. Great space for a cuppa and to do some work. There was nothing on when I was there but some brilliant things coming up.

Very nice place. Huge drinks and food area, and the theatre itself was fantastic. I went here with my two teenage children, to watch Kelly Jones from Stereophonics. Hopefully this place will get a few more gigs that interest me, as I'd like to go again!

Fantastic concert hall! Very modern and arty inside and out, great food and drink options, lots of toilets including unisex all clean. Comfy seats watching Janelle Monae sound quality was brilliant. Only critic took a tumble up the stairs to the seats as they wasn't very well lit during support act and stairs had two steps close together and then a large gap so I miss stepped!

Went to take a look at the new studios. Amazing large space for events but isn't fully finished yet so not at it's full potential. The food however was delicious from the bar. The veggie options were really tasty and presented beautifully.
