As long as you know the full name of the ticket purchaser. \nDo I need to buy anything to visit?\nNo\, Victoria Baths is free to enter on Tuesday and is a great place to rest\, explore\, meet\, and work. There is no obligation to purchase anything and you are free to sit in the Pineapple Room – next to our Tea Room.

The Friends of Victoria Baths set up the Victoria Baths Trust\, a charity that aims to repair and maintain the building to bring it back into public use. Since then significant restoration has taken place and the building now has over 30\,000 visitors a year enjoying a wide range of activities including exhibitions\, festivals\, and weddings. There is still a lot of work to be done and the Trust remains determined to bring the amazing building back to its full potential and continue to support the health and well-being of the people of Manchester – its original purpose. \nYou can support Victoria Baths by donating\, becoming a member of the Friends\, becoming a volunteer\, or making a purchase in our tea room and online shop.

There is still a lot of work to be done and the Trust remains determined to bring the amazing building back to its full potential and continue to support the health and well-being of the people of Manchester – its original purpose. \n  \nYou can support Victoria Baths by donating\, becoming a member of the Friends\, becoming a volunteer\, or making a purchase in our tea room and online shop.

Since then significant restoration has taken place and the building now has over 30\,000 visitors a year enjoying a wide range of activities including exhibitions\, festivals\, and weddings. There is still a lot of work to be done and the Trust remains determined to bring the amazing building back to its full potential and continue to support the health and well-being of the people of Manchester – its original purpose. \n  \nYou can support Victoria Baths by donating\, becoming a member of the Friends\, becoming a volunteer\, or making a purchase in our tea room and online shop.
