Chester Conferences

Chester

The historic City of Chester, with its 2000 years of architectural heritage and City Walls is a short walk from the conference centre.

Its Roman remains, the city walls, the River Dee and historic galleries of exclusive shops are well known tourist attractions. The City also offers a wide range of activities and venues for out-of-conference hours and evening entertainment.

Chester is an ideal base for exploring the Cheshire countryside, whilst the excellent rail and motorway networks can lead you to the natural beauty of North Wales or the bustling commerce of Manchester and Liverpool.

Easily accessible by road and rail and from regional and international airports. Chester is centrally located, only 30 minutes from Manchester Airport and close to the main arteries of the motorway system via the M56 and M6.

Warrington

Warrington is a lively, vibrant town with a wide variety of businesses, recreation facilities and entertainment venues. The town centre houses a multi-screen cinema complex and an impressive array of restaurants, café bars and pubs, and is easily reached from the main site.

In the surrounding area, the renowned Trafford centre (which many designer and household names have chosen as the location for their only branch outside London) is one of several venues only a short drive away. Indeed, in a similar time you could visit the cities of Liverpool or Manchester. In addition, the natural beauty of three of the Country’s finest national parks is within reach of the site – the Lake District, the Peak District and Snowdonia National Park.

For those travelling by train the station is just 5 minutes away from the Conference Centre.
