National Cycling Centre

The National Cycling Centre in Manchester is one of the World’s finest sporting venues in the UK and provides an ideal location for most occasions and filming and can host conferences, exhibitions and unforgettable events with ICE Bike’s Trade Show, SOPHOS Conference Day and Manchester Beer Festival, to name a few. 

Events can be hosted ranging from those requiring the full capacity of the Track Centre area with more than 2300 m ² of floor space, to our truly unique conference and meeting spaces.

Choose your event setup whether it’s on the magnificent track centre, the upper concourse overlooking the velodrome track, the concourse on the ground floor or our two hospitality boxes. The ground floor concourse is a great space for exhibitors, retailers or food and beverage.

Our two trackside hospitality boxes provide an ideal location for private lunches, dinners, meetings or receptions as they offer excellent views of the track.
