I've also used the student halls at Fallowfield twice for a convention (last year and in 2000, iirc). Good on the rooms and break-out facilities (and, tbh, it isn't as bad as "run-down" suggests) though I don't recall any space large enough for 400-500 at a time, but that might just be because we only needed a space for 200 or so. Fallowfield could easily accomodate any number who might turn up though and both those uses were rooms for seven days at the flat rate

I don't understand there not being a sizeable hall on Oxford Road - there's plenty listed on that link I gave you, including the Roscoe theatre (~500) and the Whitworth hall (~650) with a few combinations of different rooms/spaces. Or is everything already booked?
I'm rather suprised too. Maybe they are solid booked... either way, I think I'll call them again tomorrow to discuss this and Fallowfield Hall.
