About
Albert Hall Manchester
Albert Hall Manchester is one of the city’s most atmospheric event venues, set within a beautifully restored Grade II listed former Wesleyan chapel on Peter Street. Its stained-glass windows, ornate balconies, original organ and dramatic architectural features create a striking backdrop for conferences, awards ceremonies, gala dinners, product launches, Christmas parties and large corporate celebrations.
The venue combines its historic setting with professional production facilities, built-in staging, sound and lighting, in-house catering and a dedicated events team. Full exclusive hire allows organisers to transform the hall for formal dinners, theatre-style conferences, live entertainment or high-capacity standing events in the heart of Manchester city centre.
Event Spaces
Main Hall
The principal event space provides a dramatic setting beneath the venue’s stained-glass windows and historic balconies. It accommodates up to 324 guests for dinner, depending on table style, and is ideal for gala dinners, awards ceremonies, conferences, product launches and corporate celebrations.
Main Hall & Mezzanine
Combining the main floor with the surrounding mezzanine creates the venue’s largest corporate configuration, accommodating up to 1,100 guests theatre style or 1,300 standing. This layout is particularly well suited to large conferences, presentations, live entertainment, company parties and brand events.
Stage
The permanent stage can support keynote presentations, panel discussions, awards ceremonies, live bands and DJs. The venue offers professional sound, lighting and production support alongside optional LED screens and enhanced lighting packages.
Exclusive Venue Hire
Albert Hall is available for full private hire, giving organisers control of the hall, mezzanine, bars, stage and supporting event areas. Events can be tailored with bespoke food, drink, entertainment and production packages.

Why Hire
