Aviva Studios is a global destination for arts, music and culture - and an event venue like no other. Born out of Manchester International Festival. Our spaces are without limits. From product launches and brand activations to fashion shows, gigs and public events, do something a bit different here.

At Aviva Studios, we're shapeshifters and explore the art of the possible.

With up to 13,200m2 of flexible indoor and outdoor space and room for up to 5,000 people, our spaces are without limits.

Four unique, flexible spaces are available for you to use in your own way. These can be hired individually or in combination to create large-scale, impactful events, with flexibility throughout.

The Warehouse is a space to make an impact - taller than four double-decker buses and longer than a passenger jet.. It’s a blank canvas, equipped with a retractable wall to the Hall, a universal technical grid, anchor points across the walls, a proscenium door and direct truck access. Accommodating up to 5000 people. The only limit to this space is your imagination. Think epic concerts, large conferences and gala dinners. The Warehouse and Hall are connected by the stage and separated by a retractable wall, this allows you to reconfigure the space.

    Aviva Studios is truly a haven for creative minds. The organisers go above and beyond to curate events that not only showcase incredible talent but also foster a sense of community. Their efforts to introduce and connect artists from all backgrounds are commendable, creating an environment where creativity thrives. One of the best aspects of this cultural space is the focus on social and global connections, offering artists a unique platform to come together and share their work. Being here has given me the opportunity to meet so many amazing artists from around the world. A huge thanks to the team and organisers for making this possible and for continually supporting the creative community. I look forward to visiting the venue and attending more events, eager to meet more inspiring people along the way.

    Came for a concert but enjoyed the restaurant and the Sweet Dreams exhibition. The staff were all so good, professional and pleasant. The theater is beautiful, the sound was great. Love the way it is set up with standing room at the ground level and seating in the balcony.
