Where to find us

You can find Heywood Civic on Peine Square in the centre of Heywood, near Heywood Library. As well as having a small car park for visitors, Heywood Civic is also close to several bus routes linking us to Rochdale, Bolton, Bury, Middleton and Manchester city centre.

We are an accessible building with a casual vibe – no need to dress up to come in and enjoy our events or cafe, just be yourself!

Opening Times

Our opening times will vary depending on our events schedule, but the Bar Kitchen will be open during the day for you to come and enjoy a cup of tea with friends or an informal work catch-up. Opening times will be confirmed nearer the opening date.

We open to the public in February 2026.
