The Wheel of Manchester

The Wheel of Manchester, which was located in Exchange Square, just outside the Arndale Centre, was one of Manchester’s top attractions.

The 60 meter-tall Ferris wheel had 42 capsules affording great views of the city in a 13 minute circle. One capsule was designated as a VIP capsule with optional champagne.

The first wheel on the site was erected in 2004 and the present wheel replaced it in 2007. The wheel moved to Edinburgh in April 2012.

The Wheel of Manchester was close to the Arndale Center, Urbis and Manchester Cathedral.
