This state-of-the-art, tiered auditorium is ideal for performances, seminars and projection-based entertainment.

The auditorium can be hired alone, or with a break-out space for catering. The extended auditorium facilities allow for great flexibility to accommodate a wide variety of events, theatrical performances, seminars, film showings and much more. A warm, intimate space with good natural acoustics and easy to use facilitates which enable you to ensure the focus remains on the presentation.

If a larger space is required, we suggest hiring the foyer.
