Off The Square

Off The Square is a music and events venue at 67 Lever Street in Manchester’s Northern Quarter. The space is designed for occasions that centre on live sound, social gatherings and organised entertainment, with venue hire available for a range of private and professional events.

Its setting combines contemporary touches with a rustic character that reflects the surrounding neighbourhood. The atmosphere is geared towards music and celebration, making the venue a suitable backdrop for birthday parties, live music gigs, club nights and corporate affairs. Each format can bring a different energy to the space, from a private birthday gathering to a more performance-led evening.

Off The Square is intended to support events rather than operate as a conventional restaurant or café. Its identity is shaped by the room, the music and the occasion, with the layout and atmosphere providing a flexible base for organised entertainment. The venue’s own event focus makes it relevant to organisers looking for a dedicated setting for a party, performance, nightlife event or business function.

Venue hire enquiries are handled by a dedicated team, with planning support available for organisers developing an event. This makes the space relevant to both personal celebrations and larger programmed occasions, including live music and club events. The venue can also be considered for corporate gatherings that require an event-focused environment in the Northern Quarter.

Located on Lever Street, Off The Square places event activity within one of the city centre’s best-known creative districts. Its rustic-modern style suits occasions where music and atmosphere are central, while the range of event types gives the venue a broad role in the local nightlife and private-hire scene.
