Triple award success for Manchester Central

Manchester Central has added to an already impressive list of recent industry successes, by fighting off competition from all over the UK, to be crowned ‘Best Conference Venue (over 1,300 theatre style) at the 2018 Conference Awards. The iconic city centre venue was also named ‘Best City Centre Venue’ at the National Venue Awards in June, whilst Duncan Leavitt, Technical Services Project Manager, scooped ‘Unsung Hero’ at the AEO Awards.

The largest gathering of conference professionals in the UK, the Conference Awards recognise and celebrate achievement within the conference and events industry. The Manchester Central venue impressed the judging panel with its versatile spaces, its outstanding level of service and its constant drive to continually exceed expectations.

Manchester Central CEO, Shaun Hinds, said: “We’re delighted to be bringing these awards back to Manchester and we look forward to celebrating with the rest of Manchester’s business community.

“Manchester is one of the most vibrant cities in Europe and we’re proud to be able to offer world-class event spaces to people from near and afar.

“These award wins are a reflection of the hard work that the whole team puts in, but we won’t rest on our laurels, and will continue to improve our offering, whether that’s conferences for 10,000 or meetings for 10”.
