Welcoming Your Delegates
From the moment they register for the event, we think it’s important that your delegates feel a strong welcome from Manchester. We can’t wait to welcome your attendees to Greater Manchester, a place that prides itself on being cosmopolitan, friendly and inviting.
Manchester and its surrounding areas offer an abundance of things for delegates to do during their downtime from the conference. Whether they’re seeking culture, nightlife, history, or just good fun, they can find information and inspiration via our dedicated pages aimed specifically at welcoming visiting attendees.
