MAKE
SOMETHING
HERE.
MAKE IT AT CAMPFIELD STUDIOS.
Campfield Studios is Manchester's most unique event space, created for people who want to make, shoot, produce, host and experiment.
It sits inside Campfield's Victorian market halls, flooded with natural light and a character no other venue can match.
Whether it's a conference, a brand activation or a fashion shoot, Campfield Studios gives you the flexibility to shape the space around your brief.
A BUILDING THAT STILL
WORKS FOR A LIVING.
The hall kept its iron roof, its glazing and its columns. Everything else was built around them. A steel mezzanine runs around all four sides carrying three daylight studios, with the event atrium open beneath and daylight reaching the floor.
It is happiest with the jobs that are awkward to place elsewhere, an atrium plain enough to dress and studios bright enough to shoot in. What happens between is up to you.

THE ATRIUM
The full floor of the hall, under the original glazed roof, with the mezzanine running around all four sides.
250 standing or 200 seated across 3,900 sq ft. It arrives as a shell, which is the point, dress it as hard as you like. Drapes to line the walkway, screens for branding, a stage where you want one. Most producers use the daylight through the day and light it properly once it goes dark. The scene dock opens straight off it, with a shutter entrance to the street, so set up and load in never cross the room.
AND THEN THE LIGHT GOES, AND IT BECOMES SOMEWHERE ELSE.
Book them one at a time or take the whole floor, and add the atrium below for a full site. The gallery looks down into the hall for client viewing.
Book your hours and use the space as you wish. The perfect shoot, a casting, a workshop, or a
more intimate event space.

THE STUDIO
A ground floor room with far fewer windows than the daylight studios, and its own green room. Quieter, more private, and easier to light to a plan. Double doors straight off the scene dock, so sets, backdrops and trucked kit come in without going through the main building. Used mostly for television, backdrop shoots and set builds.
Direct double door access from the scene dock
