Meeting planners looking for a conference venue with less distraction than a major city, but close to the city action and transport links, know that Altrincham is a great alternative meeting destination.

8 Miles south west of Manchester city centre and close to the attractions of the county of Cheshire, Altrincham offers a range of meeting spaces and conference suites as well as teambuilding events and wedding venues.

A vibrant market and commuter town, easy to reach via the M60, M56, M62 and M6 motorway network, by train and via flights to Manchester for both national and international delegates, Altrincham need not be overshadowed by the image of Manchester as the location of choice for meetings, events and conferences in the region.

A particularly stunning venue for your meeting, conference or wedding is Dunham Massey, a historic venue set in 300 acres of deer park and gardens making a truly idyllic setting for your function or event. An unusual venue, the Concorde Conference Centre is a flexible state-of-the-art space suitable for exhibitions, training, meetings or teambuilding events. A sporting venue, Altrincham FC has 3 meeting rooms catering for up to 120 delegates, whilst academic and sporting venue Altrincham Grammar School for Boys can cater for large or small meetings, conferences, training events or exhibitions. Those looking for an unusual venue or teambuilding event should consider Cordon Vert, a unique experience being a vegetarian cookery school set in large picturesque gardens.
