Venue

HOME Manchester

Independent cinema and arts venue with multiple screens and gallery space.

HOME Manchester cinema entrance on First Street

HOME sits on First Street in a converted Victorian warehouse, housing three cinema screens with different acoustic profiles and seating capacities. The programming leans toward independent films, international cinema, and artist-led retrospectives, alongside mainstream releases.

The ground floor includes a gallery space and cafe that stays open outside screening hours. Members get access to early preview nights and discounted ticket rates, with the ability to book private screenings for group events.

Unlike larger multiplex venues, HOME's smaller scale means you're more likely to encounter filmmakers at their own screenings, and the venue regularly hosts post-film Q&As with directors and producers visiting the city.
