Why should I use VenueScanner?


There has been a huge surge of people keen to book their next event in Manchester venues  with gardens, as the ‘safer’ approach to events. Maybe you’re all out of inspiration because there is rarely a day in Manchester where you can sit in a garden without being rained on. VenueScanner was founded for this exact purpose, trying to help you find spaces that you may otherwise not have found. Providing you with inspiration for your next event, to ensure that it’s everything you hoped for and more. 

We’re not just here for your next garden party in Manchester. We can help you discover many different types of venues from churches to large event spaces. Whether you’re booking your birthday party, or the next big business conference for work, or maybe a brainstorm with some of your team, we can help you find the best space. And we’re not just focused in Manchester either! VenueScanner can help you find venues all across the UK from large cities to more rural areas, which could be perfect for your next team away day.

To get started on discovering the perfect venue for your next event, simply tell us a little bit about the event you’re planning: the event type, budget, area and preferred date and you’ll find a shortlist of the best garden spaces in Manchester. It’s also free to make as many enquiries as you’d like to the venue.


What’s so good about a venue with a garden?


Coming out the other side of lockdown, we all know that transmission is much lower outdoors, and so this is an appealing option for those keen on booking future events. Manchester venues with a garden have seen a significant increase of enquiries and bookings as a result of it. So, we want to help you find the best as we understand that many organisers are feeling safer when holding events outside.

We’re sure you’ve already found your favourite canal side bar, but we’re here to help you discover new venues, and bring ones that you might not even have realised have gardens to hire to the front of your mind.

You can explore some of the best garden venues in Manchester on VenueScanner, whether you’re looking for garden wedding venues in Manchester, Northern Quarter beer gardens, or something totally different, you’ll be able to find the perfect space for your next event.



What are the best areas for garden parties in Manchester?


The truth is, there are spots all over the city perfect for garden parties of all sizes, from birthday parties in beer gardens, to weddings and corporate drinks receptions. It’s no surprise that we’re kicking this off with our favourite canal spots! Not only does this mean you’ve got the chance to make the most of the little sun that comes in Manchester, but also get to enjoy the lovely views of the canal. Our top pick here is the aptly named Rain Bar. Rain Bar’s terrace is a perfect spot for a summer BBQ with a garden party feel, or all year round for garden wedding venue hire.

Another top canal choice, situated conveniently next to Deansgate station, is Lock 91. With a terrace or balcony option perfect for exclusive hire, with full fittings ready for a DJ for your next big party event, there is everything to love.

We can’t be dreaming up fancy garden parties in Manchester without talking about Spinningfields. There are plenty of options to choose from; our favourites being the vibrant exterior of Foodwell, or the canopied garden of Australasia - both ideal spots if you’re a fan of a summer cocktail.

If you’re seeking out the alternative vibes of the Northern Quarter, then look no further than Dive NQ.

There is plenty to choose from across the city centre, but if you’re willing to venture a little further out then the luxury Didsbury House could be an option, or something you might not have thought of is The Lighthouse cinema’s Brew’s bar and garden in Stockport.
