Palace Theatre Manchester, door to door

The Palace Theatre on Oxford Street first opened in 1891 and seats around 1,950. Its large stage makes it one of the main Manchester homes for the big touring musicals, which often run for weeks at a time.

An evening show in Manchester means a long drive home or a late train back to West Lancashire. We take the group door to door, so you can enjoy dinner, the show and the interval drinks without anyone having to drive.

Before you go

Planning your evening at the Palace

Most evening performances start at 7:30pm, with matinees on some afternoons. We plan the pick-up from home around the start time and the traffic into Manchester, so you are not rushing to your seats.

The Palace sits at the southern edge of the city centre, close to restaurants on Oxford Road and around Deansgate. We can drop you for dinner first and take you on to the theatre.

  • Its sister theatre: the Opera House on Quay Street hosts touring shows too. We cover both.
  • Long musicals: some shows run past 10:45pm. Message us as you leave and we will be at the agreed spot.
  • Theatre trips for six: perfect for a family outing or a birthday group.
