Four function rooms, from a 30-seat meeting room to a hall for 200 guests in theatre layout, are available for hire at the Irish World Heritage Centre in Cheetham Hill, Manchester. The centre sells room hire for corporate meetings, conferences, exhibitions, dinners, parties and weddings, with an in-house chef for catering.
Seminars and company events
The centre describes itself as a conference and events venue close to Manchester city center. Its rooms host team meetings for as few as two people and conferences of up to 150 delegates. The four function rooms cover most business formats: a board-sized meeting, a training day, a plenary session or a seated dinner with colleagues and clients.
Organizers who need a larger group can use the Munster Hall, while smaller workshops fit the Leinster Suite or the Connacht Room. The Ulster Gallery sits between the two and works for a mid-sized conference or a banquet.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings are listed among the events the centre hosts, and the Munster Hall is the largest space for a seated meal or a reception. The official site gives no wedding-specific package or ceremony details, so couples should ask about licensing, timings and layouts when they send a request.
Rooms and capacities
The Munster Hall is the largest room. It holds 200 people in theatre layout and 150 in banqueting or conference layout. The Ulster Gallery is on the first floor and holds 100 in theatre layout and 80 for banqueting or conference. The Leinster Suite holds 30 in theatre layout or 20 in training layout. The Connacht Room is the smallest, with 30 in theatre layout or 20 in training layout.
The Wild Geese Bar, with its views over Manchester city center, is a separate space on the site. It opens onto a large garden enclosed by a wall styled after an Iron Age Celtic fort. The centre also runs a cafe and an Irish food shop.
Catering
An in-house chef can cater for events and can adapt menus to dietary requirements. A catering document is available from the centre. Organizers should confirm menus and service format when they request a date.
Accessibility
The building has no steps at the entrance or in the landscaped outdoor area. A lift serves the function room level, so every guest can reach the rooms, and there is an accessible toilet on the ground floor. Wheelchairs and strollers are accommodated in the cafe and the bar.
Getting there
The centre is at 1 Irish Town Way, Cheetham Hill, Manchester M8 0AE, a short distance from the city center. The official site does not describe public transport or parking, so ask the team about both before you confirm guest travel. Bookings go through the centre's events office by phone or email.
