Manchester Conference Centre & Pendulum Hotel
Pendulum Hotel & Manchester Conference Centre combines a purpose-built conference venue with 117-bedroom hotel accommodation in the heart of Manchester.

Why Hire
Manchester Conference Centre is a particularly strong option for organisers who need functionality rather than a venue that has simply been adapted to accommodate conferences. Its purpose-built rooms, dedicated theatre and extensive breakout facilities allow complex programmes to operate within one venue, from a main plenary session through to workshops, catering and exhibitions.
The combination with Pendulum Hotel is another major advantage. With 117 bedrooms on site, organisers can keep delegates, meetings, catering and accommodation together, making the venue well suited to residential conferences, training programmes and multi-day events.
Its city-centre location also makes it highly accessible for national events, with Manchester Piccadilly and Manchester Oxford Road both around a five-minute walk away.
