About Our Manchester Events

Corporate events in Manchester that deliver real results

As dedicated corporate event planners based in the North West, our Manchester team at Bartle House is embedded in the city's business community.

Our English headquarters at Bartle House puts us at the centre of Manchester's corporate landscape. We've spent years building relationships with the city's top venues, trusted suppliers, and production teams. That local presence means faster response times, better rates, and the kind of insider knowledge you only get from working in a city every day.

The venue options here are outstanding. Manchester Central's Victorian Gothic architecture hosts conferences for 5,000+ delegates. Old Trafford's Theatre of Dreams atmosphere turns corporate hospitality into something genuinely exciting. The Etihad Stadium delivers modern, state-of-the-art production capabilities. The Lowry on Salford Quays adds waterfront elegance and artistic character.

We deliver everything from team building in Manchester to corporate fun days and evening events. When teams need to escape the city, the Peak District is 30 minutes away. Manchester Airport's 200+ direct destinations make the city one of the UK's most accessible for national and international delegates.
