The meeting venue and accommodation
The meeting is taking place in the Pendulum Hotel and Manchester Conference Centre which is a 9 minute walk from both Oxford Road and Piccadilly train stations. This is also the accommodation for some attendees. Other accommodation is provided at the Premier Inn (Princess Street) which is a few minutes walk around the corner from the Pendulum Hotel.
Arriving by train
There are three train stations in central Manchester, two of which are a short walk to the venue, Piccadilly Station (7 minutes) and Oxford Road Station (9 minutes). If you arrive at Victoria Station, the walk will take around 25 minutes through the city, or you may get a taxi if you prefer.
Arriving by car
The hotel is on a one-way road but is accessible from a sliproad off the Mancunian Way (A57(M)) and Princess Street (A34).
We recommend using the NCP car park Manchester Circle Square, Oxford Road, Manchester, M1 7ED. (what3words location: ///salads.inch.urgent). It has 1000 parking spaces, is a 5-minute walk from the Pendulum Hotel, open 24 hours and you can pre-book a space. No tickets are given, automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) is used. Parking is paid for on an app or online.
Dining in Manchester
There is a great choice of places to eat in the centre of Manchester that are a short walk from the hotel. This link shows some of the restaurants you can choose from and can be filtered on price and cuisine. The meeting venue is on Sackville Street.
