Depot Mayfield
Depot Mayfield is an events venue with raw urban grit and cultural cachet. Manchester’s former railway station, it has been reborn as a home for arts, music, industry, fashion and business.
The 10,000 capacity venue is made up of five interconnected, large-scale industrial spaces. These places have played host to all sorts of events from the Warehouse Project to the RHS Urban Show to Manchester Beer Festival. Outdoor spaces abound too for open-air summer events.
If you’re interested in putting on anything from an art installation to an awards ceremony, this is the place. The architectural features add character to any event, from black tie dinners to business conferences. The smaller spaces in between work perfectly as breakout areas while the interplay of light and dark is perfect for filming and photography shoots.
Depot Mayfield is also known as the home of Freight Island, Manchester’s indoor/outdoor food and entertainment hub.
Open: Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun
