About TeamSport Manchester Victoria

Victoria is TeamSport's city-centre Manchester venue, and its party trick is the location: the whole circuit is built into the space under the Manchester Arena car park, right next to Victoria train station. Unlike its sister site at Trafford Park, which runs petrol karts, Victoria is all-electric — quieter, cleaner and quick off the mark. It's a multi-level (multi-storey) track, so the racing climbs and drops rather than staying on one flat floor. The venue holds a 4.4 out of 5 rating from close to 2,000 Google reviews.

The Circuit

At 550 metres the layout is one of the longer indoor circuits in the region, threading around some 15 bends with a flyover where the track passes over itself and lets you pick up real speed. The Biz electric karts are quoted at up to 45mph, and because they deliver their pull the instant you press the pedal, the trick here is timing your acceleration out of the tighter turns rather than wrestling a gearbox. The multi-level design and changing gradients give it more variety than a typical single-storey indoor track, which keeps repeat visits interesting.

Who Should Visit

The big draw is convenience: if you're coming by train or tram, you can step off at Victoria Station and be trackside within minutes, which makes this an easy pick for after-work groups, stag and hen parties and anyone who'd rather not drive to an out-of-town unit. Karting is open from age 8, with no experience needed and all kit supplied, so it handles mixed-ability groups and birthdays comfortably.

It's also a natural fit for corporate and team days given the central spot. Group packages can include exclusive track time, race management, timing and printed results, and being fully indoors the racing goes ahead whatever the Manchester weather is doing.

Planning Your Visit

You'll find it at Victoria Station Approach, Hunts Bank, Manchester M99 1ZW, directly beneath the Arena car park. It's a short walk from Victoria Station and served by the Metrolink tram (Victoria stop), which makes public transport genuinely practical here — a rarity for a kart track.

On site there's a licensed bar and a trackside gallery for spectators, plus a food menu covering burgers, pizzas, hot dogs and waffles, so you can settle in before or after racing. Being indoors, sessions run year-round.

Prices are mid-range for UK karting and booking online ahead usually unlocks a discount. Central venues like this get busy at weekends and for parties and work events, so book in advance and confirm current times and rates with the venue before you go.
