Tileyard North

Creativity is at the heart of Tileyard North, a dynamic destination on Wakefield Waterfront bringing music, film, technology, business and events together within the historic Rutland Mills complex. As the first expansion of the Tileyard creative community outside London, our 135,000-square-foot site sits directly opposite The Hepworth Wakefield and provides an inspiring environment for cultural, corporate and creative gatherings. Our event spaces are designed to feel different from conventional venues. The Carding Shed is our largest indoor space, with capacity for events of up to 800 guests. Vinyl Cafe North offers a more intimate atmosphere for gatherings and receptions of approximately 50–150 people, while our Courtyard provides an open-air setting for outdoor events. Within the complex, The Mill adds another versatile option for weddings, corporate events, exhibitions, birthdays, anniversaries and special celebrations. Our wider creative facilities also include professional recording studios, podcast production spaces and film and photography facilities, opening up possibilities for launches, media productions, entertainment and experiential events. Whether hosting a major creative gathering, corporate function, wedding, exhibition or private celebration, Tileyard North provides more than an event space. Our combination of industrial character, contemporary creativity and specialist production facilities creates an environment where organisers can build experiences around their own ideas.
