Rent a loft in Manchester for events

Lofts are some of the most flexible and affordable event venues you could book. Some Manchester lofts come pre-decorated to match a specific theme. You'll find some that match the look of a pub hidden in the Bavarian Alps and others that look like a New York speakeasy. Others still are blank slates meant to be converted into the event space of your dreams. Manchester has a large collection of lofts and people book them for all kinds of events. Wedding receptions, product launches, networking events, and fundraising galas, just to name a few. Lofts can have large windows, high ceilings, and space for anywhere between 10 and 1,000 guests. Let's look at where to find Manchester loft venues!

The best places to rent a loft in Manchester

Lofts are often repurposed spaces that were once a part of a warehouse complex, office building, department store, or other large venue. When the original business moved out, the spaces within were partitioned for creative purposes. Manchester's long history as a factory city in the Industrial Revolution means that it has a lot of lofts. Some have been converted into apartments but many remain as spaces for holding special events. Consider loft restaurants, pubs, and lounges. You can reserve the entire dining hall or pub for bachelor parties, birthdays, and anniversary dinners. Many also have private loft venues for special events separated from the main venue. Lofts are also ideal for creative types like painters, photographers, and sculptors. You have privacy, natural light from large windows, and room for studio backdrops or other props. Loft studios are available by the hour in most cases and may come fully furnished or act as blank slates for an artist to work with.

Explore industrial loft venues in Manchester

Industrial lofts are what most people think of when they consider a loft. Exposed brick walls, ceiling beams, original factory windows…It's easy to see the loft was once part of a factory or warehouse. Industrial loft venues are popular for industrial-style weddings. They are also used for special events where you want a space that's amenable to transformation with the right decorations and props. An industrial loft can easily become a panel speaker venue, a happy hour venue, or a pop up art gallery. Even if your industrial loft venue is already a restaurant or pub, it's likely you can reserve the venue for special events of any kind.
