Manchester Central named as ‘Best Conference Venue’ for second consecutive year

Manchester Central has been named ‘Best Conference Venue’ (over 1,250 theatre style) for the second consecutive year at the 2019 Conference Awards. 

It’s been a successful couple of months for the venue, which has also recently been recognised as ‘Best Exhibition Venue’ at the Exhibition News Awards and ‘Best Venue Team’ 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 venue impressed the judging panel with a record year in the corporate sector, it’s commitment to working with organisers to deliver exceptional (and often award-winning) events and continual investment in new facilities.  

CEO Shaun Hinds said: “As we know, retaining titles can often be harder than the initial win. To be named as Best Conference Venue for the second-year running is simply fabulous and testament to the professionalism and attitude of the whole team here at Manchester Central. To be recognised in this way by our industry peers is wonderful.  

Above all, it shows that we’re not resting on our laurels and are actively seeking new ways in which we can improve both the client and delegate experience. This win makes it one of our most successful years for awards and I’m delighted that everyone’s hard work at the venue is being recognised.”
