Imperial War Museum North

IWM North, the first UK building designed by world-renowned architect Daniel Libeskind, is a remarkable experience. Within its striking, innovative structure, you will find a unique venue for your meetings and events.

You can dine, make presentations, hold launches and entertain in our dramatic spaces. Whatever your plans – a special event, grand, formal or intimate – we’re able to accommodate.

Evening events have exclusive use of the Museum, offering a high degree of flexibility. You can dine under a suspended Harrier jump-jet, make a presentation with the backdrop of historic artillery, or dance beside a T34 Russian tank.

Offering comfort and style choose from the newly refurbished Libeskind Rooms or the scenic WaterShard Café for breakfast meetings, conferences, presentations and lunches.
