The Snow Centre Manchester hosts meetings, conferences, training sessions, team-building days, networking events and celebrations for up to 100 guests, beside an indoor real snow slope in Trafford Park. Spaces overlook the slope, and organisers can add skiing or snowboarding sessions to a business day. Exclusive hire of the whole site is also offered.
Seminars and company events
The site sells venue and meeting room hire as a business offer, with dedicated event support from first enquiry to the day itself. Two suites suit workshops, seminars and presentations, two small rooms suit board meetings and interviews, and the lodge areas suit networking and evening functions. Catering packages run from refreshments and working lunches to private dining and evening receptions.
Corporate away days combine the rooms with activities on snow. The site lists the Summit Challenge, Snow Park sessions and lessons for all abilities, led by instructors, as ways to build team work. Tailored packages join activities, event spaces and catering for groups of different sizes.
Weddings and receptions
The official site does not sell weddings. It does present private celebrations, birthdays and team successes, with flexible spaces and tailored packages, and the Lodge Bar and Kitchen for celebrations.
Rooms and capacities
The Anton Suite and the Aspen Suite each take up to 50 guests, with multiple layouts and, in the Anton Suite, full audio-visual facilities. Combined, they hold up to 100 guests for conferences, networking events and larger corporate gatherings. The Verbier Suite and the Vail Suite are small rooms for up to 12 guests each, with a screen and Wi-Fi, designed for board meetings, interviews and breakouts. The Apres Lodge overlooks the main slope and can be hired on its own for networking and celebrations, or paired with the Anton and Aspen Suites for larger groups. The Lodge Bar and Kitchen is available for partial or exclusive hire for 50 or more guests, with a licensed bar and catering options.
Exclusive hire covers the Main Slope, the Snow Park, the Beginner Slope, the meeting rooms and the function spaces. The site presents it for company takeovers, team-building events, product launches, private celebrations and filming or photography projects.
Catering
Catering is offered by the venue and tailored to each event. Options range from light refreshments to working lunches, private dining and evening receptions. For corporate groups the site also mentions a full three-course meal.
