Broadwick is a multifaceted international company headquartered in London who create, develop, own and operate a diverse portfolio of venues, spaces, events and experiences. We believe in redefining spaces and how people experience music, art, culture and recreation by breaking down the traditional barriers. Our history and heritage is deeply rooted in music, building a portfolio of 20 global festivals before selling the portfolio in 2019 to focus on our growing portfolio of venues that includes Printworks London, Depot Mayfield Manchester, Drumsheds London, Exhibition London and Magazine London. Collectively we strive to push boundaries and disrupt the cultural landscape by combining big thinking, bold ideas and commercial intelligence to produce spaces and experiences for discerning audiences in inspiring locations.

Our team is responsible for leading this through radical partnership. We believe collaboration breeds innovation, which enables our brands, businesses and people to continually evolve. We aim to break down barriers and draw inspiration for our own creativity by seeking out new and often unexpected people, brands, collectives and companies at the top of their game, to partner and collaborate with.
