Manchester Academy 2 is located inside the University of Manchester Students Union building on Oxford Road, and was previously the university's main debating hall before it was transformed into a gig venue. As the second largest of the four gig venues on the University of Manchester campus, this venue — found on the first floor of the Students Union — has seen the likes of The White Stripes, Faithless and Siouxsie Sioux perform here during the earlier stages of their careers, as well as more recently hosting Hurts, The War On Drugs, Disclosure and many more. The venue's 900 capacity means that a packed crowd can create a pretty spectacular atmosphere, all while still being small enough for everyone to actually see the stage. While it's often a place to see some of the best new breakthrough bands around, you're likely to see plenty of old favourites appearing here too. Opening times and curfews vary depending on the event, so check out our listings for more information. [Charlotte Davies]
