- Owner description:
-
We opened Barbirolli because we felt a niche was not being filled in Manchester for a smart, sophisticated live music venue.
We have a stunning waterfront location in Barbirolli Square opposite the Bridgewater Hall and have two bars, a stage for live music and a sumptuous cocktail lounge. - Category:

2 reviews of Barbirolli Square in English
Beautiful place to eat, drink and relax... would highly recommend.
This is a refined introduction to the Bridgewater Hall, Manchester's prime venue for music events. Halle Orchestra performs here, and early in 2009 Bridgewater Hall was graced by the world-known, Oscar-winning French composer, Michel Legrand, who was accompanied on his tour by Alison Moyet.
The square sits right opposite GMex, with views on Hilton Hotel, The Great Northern Tower, and The Midlands Hotel. It is named after Sir John Barbirolli, the renowned conductor whose bust marks the entrance to the Bridgewater Hall.
The Barbirolli Building houses different offices, and between it and the concert hall is a gigantic Pebble weighing 18 ton - a marble sculpture by the Japanese artist, Kan Yasuda (said to be worth £20,000).
The square is paved in York stone, with bands of granite.
