Imperial War Museum North is an iconic city landmark that offers the perfect setting for your event. The award-winning architecture by Daniel Libeskind creates a unique and inspirational atmosphere. Whatever your plans - a special event, grand, informal or intimate - we're more than able to accommodate your needs including free parking for 160 cars, a rarity for a location so close to the city centre.
For evening events you have exclusive use of the entire Museum, offering a high degree of flexibility. Imagine dining under a suspended Harrier jump-jet, making a presentation with the backdrop of an historic artillery piece, or dancing beside a T34 Russian tank: this is one of the most unrivalled and impressive event venues in the UK.
You can also choose to incorporate the Museum's award winning Big Picture as part of your event. This amazing 360-degree audiovisual show combines sound and vision on a massive scale, and provides an unforgettable experience.
