Overview
The McManus: Dundee’s Art Gallery & Museum offers inspirational spaces, each with a different atmosphere in which to hold your event.
The building has been beautifully renovated to re-create the original galleries, combining state of the art facilities with Nationally Recognised Collections. Located in the heart of the city, the museum is just a short walk from Dundee’s rail and coach stations.
An evening reception at McManus provides a unique and prestigious opportunity to enjoy the building and its fascinating collections after opening hours. We can accommodate a range of evening events, including drinks receptions, product launches, awards ceremonies and private views of exhibitions. From intimate dining in the atmospheric Gothic Hall to larger receptions in the wonderful Victoria Gallery, we aim to ensure that your event will be a particularly memorable one.

"I would like to thank you and your staff for the excellent service on the evening of the Fusion event. Everything went perfectly and the feedback has been very positive. It was really fantastic to work with you and you made organising this event so much easier for me so thanks for all you help. Perhaps we will work with you and McManus Galleries again in the future."
