Website | EmailCreated from the shell of a major national newspaper printers, Printworks is one of the latest redevelopments to be created in the wake of the 1996 IRA bomb. At a cost of £150 million the building has been completely refurbished to provide what has been described as Europe's first major urban leisure and entertainment complex. Inside, there is over 350,000 square feet of floor space containing over 30 cafés and bars, 16 restaurants, a health and fitness centre and the only IMAX cinema in the region. The cobbled walkways and cavernous spaces create a strange, neon lit, almost futuristic atmosphere with massive flickering video screens and constant loud piped dance music.
