People’s History Museum, Engine Hall

About Venue

At People’s History Museum (PHM) we offer a mix of heritage and contemporary multiuse spaces that can cater for small workshop events to large conferences and celebrations.

The museum’s buildings house galleries, an archive study centre, conservation studio and cafe bar; all of which can be incorporated into bespoke event experiences. In choosing PHM for your event you will not only benefit from a unique venue packed with heritage, but you’ll be contributing to something bigger: to support the museum’s social mission as a free museum, dedicated to preserving and sharing stories of change that empower people to make a difference.

This wonderfully restored Edwardian Engine Hall is a magnificent setting for a special event. It features an ornate glass ceiling and tiled walls that epitomise the industrial pride of the Edwardian era. It is an ideal space for weddings, conferences, evening drinks receptions and presentations.
