Carriage Shed

Carriage Shed is a unique, open-air events space in the heart of Chester, set beneath the striking architecture of a beautifully restored Grade II listed railway building. Just steps from Chester Train Station, our venue offers a flexible and atmospheric setting for markets, festivals, performances, exhibitions, private functions, and brand activations. With a covered canopy, high footfall location and a strong local following, Carriage Shed is the perfect blank canvas for event organisers looking to deliver something special. From large-scale seasonal events to community-focused gatherings, we provide the infrastructure, location, and support to make your ideas a success. We’ve hosted everything from live theatre and food festivals to outdoor cinema, artisan markets, and creative showcases. Our team works closely with organisers to ensure events are delivered safely, professionally, and with impact.
