Manchester is often called the creative capital of the North, which isn’t a surprise when you think of the nearly 10,000 creative businesses that have set up camp here. From MediaCity to successful musicians such as The Smiths, Oasis and Bugzy Malone, this is just part of the landscape in Manchester, making it the perfect home for young creatives.
Going hand in hand with this is the thriving tech community with global firms including Google, Microsoft and IBM based right here too. The city is one of the best places to enter either of these industries, as both are expanding rapidly.
Manchester is home to not one, but two ACC centres on Oxford Street and Hulme Street. Our Oxford Street centre hosts our music students and our Hulme Street centre is where you’ll find games and media and each one is dedicated to the disciplines they house. They’re also only a 16 minute walk from each other, so collaboration between courses is still on the table.
