Recently had our engagement party at marsden mechanics and couldn?t fault the place, or the staff! Felicity was really helpful from enquiry to the party starting and the the staff that took over for the rest of the evening were nothing but helpful and lovely! Would definitely recommend if you need a function room for a party! :)

Went to see a Spanish film - the film was good, had subtitles - the film they did a trailer for with Ruth Wilson in it, couldn't hear any of the words it was all mumbled (it was a words'y film) maybe a speech speaker setup is needed????Good building tho?

We had a lovely evening at The Mechanics Hall, The Swing Commanders gave a great show as always!The following comment bears no reflection on the Mechanics Hall but we were very disappointed in the female members of the band attire.In previous shows they wore more attractive dresses more in line with the numbers and the era they were representing in their choice of songs.

Good venue, but seating could have been arranged better.

I recently photographed a fantastic DIY wedding at Marsden Mechanics Hall. The hall is upstairs, and offers a great, versatile space for weddings. It is also licensed so you can have a legal ceremony here (Sorted via Huddersfield register office).The staff were super friendly and came to greet arriving guests and help those who needed it upstairs. (There is a lift for accessible access and an accessible toilet downstairs).I heard guests commenting on what great value the drinks are at the bar, we all know that can make a difference when you attend a wedding!The couple had a rock band - and the venue comes complete with the stage. They had their top table on the stage as well, which was great as they got a view of all the guests (And was fab for photography)The village itself has some lovely spots for photographs (including by the river) and despite it raining for most of the day we managed to make it out for some.The venue itself doesn't have designated parking, but there is free on street parking in several spots in the village (and a large, free car park about ten minutes walk away - next to the canal)If you're looking for a fantastic, great value for money, DIY wedding venue, that also supports valuable community projects, this is absolutely perfect.I hope to come back asap!

Watched our granddaughter in a dancing competition. The hall was located on the first floor. Quite cramped plus very stuffy and warm. No windows open that I could see making it uncomfortable to stay in there at times.With it being on the main street it was pot lock for parking.
