I'm going here for the first time to see the Pigeon Detectives on Friday. Just wondering whats the best way to get to and from this from Picadilly if anyone's ever been before? And if it's by taxi, how much roughly would it cost? Thanks

It's within a reasonably easy 15 minute ish walk, that's what I'd do. Best palce in Manchester to see a gig by far, enjoy it mate.

Yes walk, turn left out of picadilly keep going. Can also stop at a pub on the way. Be careful if your catching last train back to stoke, might need to leave early. If you fancy a drink in the apollo, it's warm cans of carling i'm afraid.

Thanks for your help ;D

Agreed downstairs is better but upstairs can be pretty good if everyone's up and bouncing about and it starts rocking.
