With the festive season well and truly here, we’re taking some time away from the hustle and bustle of SEO to introduce you to the place Supersede Media calls home: MediaCityUK. Here in this vibrant location, just a stone’s throw from central Manchester, you can find some of the most exciting creative businesses in the country.
More than just a place to work, MediaCityUK is establishing itself as a tourist hotspot in its own right. Meanwhile, more and more people are flocking to the local apartments as the area becomes an increasingly attractive place to live. Let’s explore some of the top sights!
MediaCityUK is perhaps best known for its links to the BBC and to ITV. The two broadcasters have certainly left their stamp on the area, with both boasting landmark buildings and contributing to the creative vibe that permeates the Quays.
That particular buzz also carries over to the wide variety of cultural offerings you can find in MediaCityUK. From permanent fixtures such as the Imperial War Museum to temporary exhibitions, you can always find something to explore in the area.
If you’re feeling peckish after exploring some of the sights, there’s no shortage of food and drink options in the vicinity. You can enjoy well-known brands such as Pret a Manger and Wagamama alongside local favourites such as Grindsmith, Vertigo and Seven Brothers.
Over the water from the main piazza, you’ll find Quayside MediaCityUK. Once known as the Lowry Outlet, this bustling centre has grown to incorporate new dining experiences and immersive activities.
Though it’s already grown substantially since the early 2010s, MediaCityUK isn’t slowing down. With new apartment buildings, offices and shops springing up across the Quays, the future for this once-neglected part of Salford is brighter than ever.
It’s no wonder that Supersede Media decided to open our very own office here! So—what are you waiting for? Come and explore MediaCityUK for yourself!
