"One of our city's hidden gems...
A firm favourite of mine when booking meeting or event space"

Si Cunningham - Pillar Lead, Bradford Business Improvement District
WELCOME!
The Mechanics' Institute was founded in 1832 and still retains its original functions: the provision of meeting spaces, a library  and archives for the education of all. 
  We are one of Bradford's oldest institutions and, to quote the Telegraph and Argus, have survived two world wars, Spanish flu, the Depression, inflation, recession, austerity and the pandemic!
We are open Monday - Friday, 9:30am to 3:30pm.
Room hire is also available outside of these hours. Please use the links below to check availability or phone us to talk through your requirements.

ACCESSIBILITY
We occupy a historic building on one of Bradford's oldest streets. Wheelchair users have successfully used our level access from the street, the lift to all floors and the accessible toilet on Floor 2. However, we are aware that the limitations of the building mean that we currently do not meet the most recent standards.
Please note the lift dimensions are: Door: 735mm wide; Lift car: 1,070mm x 1,070mm.
​
We celebrate our heritage as one of the city's "hidden gems" and look forward to playing a strong role in Bradford City of Culture.
