Iconic New Century Hall to re-open as live music venue and food hall

Manchester’s New Century Hall, which once played host to the likes of Jimi Hendrix and the Rolling Stones, will re-open as a live music venue and arts space this summer.

The project, which has cost £10 million, will be spread over three floors and is set to retain many of the Grade II-listed building’s original features.

The 800-plus capacity concert venue will feature the original sprung dancefloor, contrasted with a newly-installed ‘disco ceiling’ lighting installation above the crowd, all flanked by vintage wooden panelling.
