Manchester - One of the UK's premier events cities

Manchester is one of the UK’s premier events cities boasting a huge variety of venues. This article provides details of some of Manchester’s better known venues as well as information on the city’s highly influential musical history

Manchester has long been known as one of the UK’s most innovative and prolific cities for music and the arts.

But it is Manchester’s industrial and working class history that has had the biggest influence on the unique styles of music that have been produced over the years.

In the 1960s Manchester produced bands such as The Hollies, Herman's Hermits and the Bee Gees who grew up in Chorlton before emigrating to Australia. But it was in the late seventies that Manchester began to truly compete with London as the UK’s capital of music. The Buzzcocks, The Fall, Joy Division (later New Order) emerged onto the live music scene bringing with them a unique sound that reflected the nature of their home city.

The 80s bought bands including
Happy Mondays, Inspiral Carpets, James, and The Stone Roses. These groups came from what became known as the "Madchester" scene that also centred around the renowned Hacienda nightclub developed by founder of Factory Records Tony Wilson. Other notable acts to emerge from the Manchester scene include Take That and Simply Red. Greater Manchester natives include A Guy Called Gerald, Richard Ashcroft of The Verve and Jay Kay of Jamiroquai.

Manchester has many music venues and boasts the world’s busiest arena in the shape of the Manchester Evening News Arena. In terms of concert goers the MEN is ahead of Madison Square Garden in New York and the O2 Arena in LondonArena. It seats over 21,000 and is the largest of its type in Europe. Other major venues include the Manchester Apollo and the Manchester Academy. Popular smaller venues are the Band on the Wall Roadhouse, the Night and Day Cafe, the Ruby Lounge, and The Deaf Institute.

Manchester has two symphony orchestras, the Hallé and the BBC Philharmonic as well as a chamber orchestra, the Manchester Camerata. During the 1950s, the city was home to the so-called 'Manchester School' of classical composers, which comprised Harrison Birtwistle, Peter Maxwell Davies, David Ellis and Alexander Goehr. Manchester also boasts the Royal Northern College of Music and Chetham’s School of Music making it a centre for music education. Manchester’s main classical venue was the Free Trade Hall on Peter Street, this was until the opening of the 2,500 seat Bridgewater Hallin 1996.

Customer requests quotes for provision of hire plasma screen in Manchester

The customer contacted AVRent via our online quote form requesting quotes for the provision of a 42” plasma screen for an event being held at Mancheter Central Exhibition Centre. As only a basic level of event information was included on the quote form Audiorent contacted the customer via email to gather additional information including how the screen was to be mounted, the input source (e.g. laptop, DVD player) and if delivery and installation was required.

The customer responded to our email and advised us that the plasma screen would be positioned on an exhibition stand and as such would require a trolley mount stand. The input source would be a DVD player to be supplied by the customer and no audio output was required as no sound was to be relayed from the video. The customer also required delivery and installation direct to the venue with no access issues expected.

Once this information had been added to the quote form the customer’s event details were sent directly to four AV hire companies who could hire plasma screens in the Manchester area.
