Opening in February, AREA51 set out to create a cutting edge club
with a quality musical backdrop.
The venue has gained plaudits as the best club space in Manchester
with its welcoming first room, large smoking terrace and the long
dark tunnel main room which is just perfect for the underground
music that is pumped through the state of the art Funktion 1 Sound
System.
Add to this ice cannons, projections, friendly door staff, an amazing
atmosphere and you can see why it is still rammed at 9am every
Sunday morning!
