The Gig Cartel - Venues: Bury The Met

The Met is an independent performing arts organisation based in an impressive Victorian building in Bury, just north of Manchester.

The Met presents contemporary and classic theatre, music and comedy touring nationally and internationally. We present new and exciting artists who go on to become household names as well as established artists performing to sell-out audiences all over the world.

Audiences at The Met have enjoyed a pre-Partridge Steve Coogan, legendary performances by Joy Division and The Pixies, pre-Elbow Elbow, pre-Hollywood Lee Evans and live music and theatre that leaves people inspired and enriched.

With the assistance of our funders and sponsors, we maintain affordable prices for our events so that everyone can enjoy our programme. We are committed to offering first class live entertainment – and welcoming you to the friendliest live arts venue in the North West of England!

The Met is run by Bury Metropolitan Arts Association, a company limited by guarantee (No. 2370868) and a registered charity (No. 701879).
