Conference & Events at Emirates Old Trafford | 15The Pavilion Event Space
Combining the finest traditions of English cricket with modern, state-of-the-art hospitality, the award-winning Pavilion – alongside The Point – has made Emirates Old Trafford a leading events and hospitality venue in the North West. Originally built in 1857, the Pavilion underwent an intensive £7.5m redevelopment that was completed in 2013.
The venue is able to accommodate up to 700 guests across the eight suites and nine Executive Boxes we have to offer. With a footbridge linking The Point to the Pavilion, delegates have easy access to breakout rooms and extra syndicate spaces, making the venue unique. Our suites are completely flexible, and can be adapted to your every need.
Whether you’re planning a conference, exhibition, a glamorous dinner or a wedding, then our team is ready to deliver an unforgettable experience for you and your guests. Our spacious and luxurious facilities cater for all events big and small, hundreds or a handful.

Formally the home team dressing room, the walls are lined with iconic cricket scene images so you can feel the charm of the Club as you enjoy your event. Much like the Williams BMW Suite, the Brown Shipley Club Suite is best suited for small events and meetings or pre-dinner drinks.

The 1864 Suite is a vibrant, open space that is ideal for conferences, dinners, drinks receptions, networking events or parties with a closer, more relaxed feel.

Boasting its own private bar, a seated balcony and fantastic views of the pitch, the suite can be tailored down to the finest of detail. Pin-spotting and LED lighting are available if you wish to elegantly illuminate your event. With memories of Ian Botham, Shane Warne and Andrew ‘Fred’ Flintoff all once toasting success within these walls, the 1864 Suite is the perfect place to sit back, unwind and let us entertain you and your guests. If you are looking for extra space, the 1864 Suite features the 1864 Lounge, a versatile area which can be used as an office or break out area.

When the Press Gallery isn’t buzzing with journalists from across the globe reporting on Lancashire and England matches, it becomes the perfect place for lectures, seminars and large scale meetings.

And if the stunning view is too much of a distraction from the speaker, the gallery offers full-blackout blinds to ensure focus and attention. The Press Gallery is fitted with large plasma screens and power sockets at each desk space.
