iFLY Manchester

iFLY Manchester is right next to the Beyond building (formally know as the Chill Factore indoor ski slope), and less than four miles from the centre of Manchester. We are opposite the Trafford Centre and conveniently located just off the M60 motorway at junction 10.

Directions from the M60 motorway: Just after you come off Junction 10, head towards The Trafford Centre and take the left turn marked by a Brown Tourist sign 'Trafford Quays Leisure Village' just by the Premier Inn. You come out at a roundabout signed 'Ski Slope' to the left, follow that sign and you will see us on the left just past Chill Factore.

Directions from the A57: You'll pass the Barton Aerodrome on the left-hand side and come up to a set of traffic lights with the AJ Bell stadium on the right. Continue straight on at the traffic lights and cross the lifting bridge. Follow the road (and next roundabout) around, passing the Travel Lodge, and then you'll see iFLY on the right-hand side. It's a no right turn here, so you must come all the way around the next roundabout, back on yourself. You'll pass the Beyond building and see us again on the left. Take the left turn into the leisure park. NOTE: If the lifting bridge is up, it can take 15-20 minutes to re-open. There is a sign by the AJ Bell traffic lights indicating if the bridge is closing, and if so, we advise taking the alternative route over the M60 motorway bridge.
