MANCHESTER ACADEMY

Manchester Academy 1 is now closed for a major refurbishment. It is set to return with a state of the art front of house & backstage area, washrooms, cloakrooms & bars. There will be a purpose built viewing area & disabled access. It will be a pioneering environmentally–friendly building, which will harvest rainwater for the toilets & cleaning use & the building will be heated by means of deep borehole heat conversion & solar panels. We look forward to unveiling our magnificent new venue in September – watch this space for details!
