FAC251 - Factory Manchester Concerts 2025

I haad a great night with a group of friends from out of town. And the bouncers were friendly and polite. All the negative reviews about them gotta come from people kicked out for a legitimate reason. And so was I! And I still managed to talk my way baack in ;)

The big lady who sits in the toilets needs to sort herself out, she is absolutely bang out of order- when me and my friend went in the toilet cubical she burst the door open, hitting me with it, screaming at us even though 2 people are allowed in a cubical. Completely mental, the basket case also tries to charge for toilet roll!! Also if you don’t like creepy men do not come here as you will be swarmed with sweaty 30 year old desperate weirdos..

Good intimate venue for a gig and staff were nice, but the beer selection was terrible - both alcoholic (says my partner) and low alcohol/alcohol free. There are SO MANY delicious beers these days for those of us who don't like to drink alcohol, so it's really disappointing when the only option is Becks Blue - I know it's cheap to buy in but it's vile - they would sell a lot more if they got in a couple that actually taste nice.

Probably one of the worst clubs I've ever been to. Bouncers are rude, almost kicked me out for not having a ticket, even though I had one. The audience was awful too, never visiting again. Only good thing was that they played good music every once in a while. Absolute stinker overall.

Very overpriced. £10 entry and a £5 minimum charge on card machines. The stairs for going to each floor are not the safest, always very slippy and have gaps in between each step which is not safe for people who are drinking. It is good that there is different music on different floors so you dont get bored and can listen to different genres on different floors. The top floor - a drum and bass floor, also has fans and sofas which is nice because it can get very crowded and hot.
