Situated just a stone’s throw from St Helens train station we have a new cafe right by our cone entrance, The World of Glass offers a uniquely flexible venue with something for everyone. Alongside our visitor attraction, we provide a wide range of conferencing and meeting solutions, plus welcoming spaces for community events, classes, and creative gatherings. For something a little different, our quirky Tank House No. 9 is perfect for standout events. With an on-site café at the front of the building and a canal side garden towards the back of the building, The World of Glass is an attractive, convenient, and memorable venue for all kinds of occasions
The World of Glass offers three versatile hireable spaces—a bright gallery, a flexible suite, and a fully equipped auditorium—ideal for meetings, events, workshops, and performances.
We are excited to welcome school groups to our newly reimagined Museum and Art Gallery, The World of Glass. We look forward to welcoming you.
