Manchester, an active economic hub

Boarding a plane to Manchester means going to a mythical destination of the footballing world.

But the Old Trafford stadium, nicknamed "The theatre of dreams", is not the city’s only attraction. The former mining city, which has become an active economic hub, is also worth the trip to walk in the footsteps of a few famous bands (including Oasis and the Stones Roses) before visiting the Town Hall or the Imperial War Museum North.

5 reasons to go to Manchester

Listen to live music and strengthen team unity

Manchester is the cradle of many pop and rock bands, born from the crisis of the 80s. The most well-known are undoubtedly The Smiths and Oasis. If you're looking to take in some live music in a pub or a small concert hall with your team, head to The Deaf Institute or Manchester Academy.

Organize a seminar at Etihad Stadium

In Manchester, football has long been a religion. There are two clubs at the highest level, Manchester City and Manchester United. At Etihad Stadium, you have the opportunity to organize seminars and professional events. The numerous conference and meeting rooms available within the stadium area can accommodate up to 500 people.

Immerse yourself in the atmosphere of Mancunian pubs

Manchester is full of typical pubs where you can enjoy the warm atmosphere and the famous traditional English beer. If you are looking for a good tasting plan for your guests or team, head to Port Street Beer House in the Northern Quarter shopping district.

Have a lunch break in Picadilly Garden

A new place to be in Manchester, the Picadilly Gardens site is located between the two shopping districts of Market Street and Northern Quarter. It has been profoundly transformed in recent years. The result is convincing: there are now shops, restaurants, cafes, and a huge green space. A must-see during your trip!

Discover the historical atmosphere of Chetham's Library

Even if you won't have time to borrow a book, be sure to check into the oldest library in England– Chetham's Library. Always accessible to the public, this historical place shelters more than 100,000 works. It was here that Marx and Engels, future authors of the Manifesto of the Communist Party, met.
