A new 5,000-capacity entertainment destination is set to open in Manchester City Centre later this year, taking over Manchester’s largest city centre factory which is over 250,000 square feet.
DieCast, located between Store Street and Ducie Street, is the latest concept from the team behind Ramona and the Firehouse.
Emphasising the size of the task, Joel Wilkinson, DieCast Director and owner said ‘We’re taking all our learnings from Ramona and The Firehouse, but this time it’s on an industrial scale. It’s more than a venue. It’s an area within itself’
When finished, DieCast’s Creative Neighbourhood will be home to a Night Market, Brewing Co., Warehouse Restaurant, and hotly anticipated Festival Stage. As well as Manchester’s biggest Beer Garden and a Creative Hub.
Due to the sheer scale of the site, the city centre location and striking industrial aesthetics, DieCast is made to deliver creative events on an epic scale. The sprawling machine works, and factory floor create a raw industrial atmosphere. Providing inspiration for original event concepts, parties, shoots, and film locations.
“The Factory floor is available for creative events, filmmakers, musicians and event
producers to use. This is the first part of establishing DieCast as a new creative
resource for the city. We’ve had venues before, but never a whole neighbourhood!” says Adelaide Winter.
