The Bowdon Rooms in Altrincham

Boasting stunning Edwardian architecture with Art Deco influences, The Bowdon Rooms is a highly sought after wedding venue, conference centre and events hub located in the picturesque village of Bowden, Altrincham. The building was a gift to the village of Bowdon from the family of local silk manufacturer, Spencer Henry Bickham.

Known as The Assembly Rooms on construction in 1903, the venue is an ideal choice for functions that require a bit of sophistication or old school grandeur. Indeed, The Bowdon Rooms is particularly popular for weddings, as planners and full licencing ensure that the venue can cater for everything from the ceremony through to dancing under the chandeliers suspended from the dramatic 40-foot domed ceiling in the main ballroom.

The building is also available for everything from television and film shoots, fitness classes and conferences to christenings, birthday parties and gala dinners. Guests and event organisers also benefit from the convenience of The Bowdon Rooms’ proximity to a number of large hotels and guest houses, as well as the availability of a 200-space private car park.
