Where to stay for the Manchester HR Summit 2027

The Manchester HR Summit is a one-day business event created for senior HR professionals and for the suppliers who work with them. Hosted at the Radisson Blu Hotel Manchester Airport, it brings together HR directors, people leaders and specialist providers in a format that values focused conversations over the noise of a traditional exhibition floor. The event runs on a pre-arranged one-to-one meeting model. Buyer-side delegates attend free of charge and gain access to seminars led by industry experts, discussion panels and professional development sessions covering workplace wellbeing, HR technology, employee engagement and talent strategy. Suppliers get direct access to decision-makers who hold budget and are actively reviewing their current providers. The organiser's research team screens delegates in advance, so meetings address real sourcing needs rather than casual card-swapping. Each supplier receives a personalised schedule of matched meetings in a private stand. The summit is organised by Forum Events Ltd, part of Forum Events & Media Group, and sits within the wider HR Summit series which also includes a London edition. Its airport location makes it straightforward for delegates travelling from across the UK to attend and, where needed, stay overnight nearby.
