Public Building Tour

A guided 90-minute tour of The Bridgewater Hall exploring its history, acoustics and architecture, including areas not usually open to the public.

Tour guides lead visitors through Manchester's international concert venue, covering the building's history, acoustics and architecture, with access to parts of the Hall not normally open to the public. The tour lasts approximately 1 hour 30 minutes, starting at the Information Desk, and may take place when the Hall is otherwise closed. Some Back of House areas are unavailable on performance days, and the undercroft is reached by two flights of metal steps with no step-free access, though all other areas are fully accessible.
