WHP co-founder, Sam Kandel says, “What's happening down at Mayfield with the launch of the Depot venue is a huge moment for the whole of Manchester. There are a huge number of people and various different institutions and networks working in true collaboration to make this a reality. We are so grateful that WHP can play its part. After nearly ten years of pushing and pulling to make this place base camp for WHP it's finally happening. We can't wait.”
The space, a disused railway depot abandoned since 1960, is being transformed into a one of a kind multi-facetted venue, marking a huge milestone for the city's culture scene and simultaneously creating an awesome and cavernous new setting for The Warehouse Project.
