C&IT Agency Forum is the flagship event in our busy calendar of activities. It’s an opportunity for senior event agency professionals to meet leading industry suppliers and to learn, debate and discuss trends and developments in our industry.

Those who visited Manchester last Summer will have no doubt noticed the colony of Bee sculptures who had landed in the city - including our very own Bling Bee.

We capped off a record-breaking year in the exhibition sector by being named ‘Best Venue over 8,000sqm’ at the Exhibition News Awards.

In 2019, we were named ‘Best Conference Venue (over 1,250 theatre style)' for the second consecutive year at the Conference Awards.

In August 2019, we opened its doors to the city, giving everyone and anyone the opportunity to drop in and learn more about the iconic venue.

We've launched our brand new podcast channel ‘Central Chat’.

The podcast brings together experts from across the industry and further afield to discuss hot topics and trends in the world of events.
