Unit 5 is situated on the upper level of the Great Northern Warehouse, previously home to successful pop ups and private events including Friday Food Fight, Junkyard Golf, Northern Rep and the Elf Adventure Challenge.
The 6,755sq.ft space proves popular for pop up events due to its blank canvas feel, flexibility of space with a range of different rooms, mains water supply, and its own male and female toilets, making it easy for events to simply ‘pop up’.

The space is currently hired out on an event by event basis, a decision by the landlord to encourage a programme of diverse, interesting activity including an opportunity to incubate fresh ideas and businesses as seen so successfully with Friday Food Fight and Junkyard Golf.
