A brilliantly versatile event venue. Whether it is a glitzy awards ceremony, an immersive product launch, engaging conference, flashy Christmas party, film screening, or live concert for up to 3,100 people, our place is your place for the night!
Originally opened as a luxury cinema in 1933, and now a Grade II listed award-winning venue that combines vintage charm with modern facilities and approach. There’s a natural gravitas in the DNA of our building that modern venues cannot match.
Retaining many of the original features, the Grand Hall now houses a state-of-the-art PA and lighting system. The Ground Floor boasts 1100m2 of flat, pillar-free floor space, and our Circle balcony offers over 800 additional tiered seats. No matter where you are in the space, you always have a perfect view of the stage.
Our Grand Hall can host seated dinners and awards for up to 780 guests but is ideal for anywhere between 300 and 600 guests. Any conference up to 2,100 works brilliantly in the space and can utilize our Circle balcony which has fixed tiered seating. And for all the party planners, we can accommodate up to 1,500 people for a standing reception, Christmas party, or a similar event!
The grand foyer can serve as a registration and information area, or for a fabulous photo moment. With two production offices and seven backstage dressing rooms, you're never short of space. The VIP Room can serve as a cloakroom for private and corporate events, or a breakout/VIP space with 120 seat capacity. With up to five bars, a 2am license, no noise curfew, and cloakroom facilities, is a stunning venue, offering excellent value for money, no matter what your event.
Our professional events team are at hand for you to draw upon their vast experience of the events industry gained both at and many other large-scale venues, making sure you are provided with the best service throughout.
On top of that, we promise not to surprise you with any nasty hidden costs. Once you pay your hire fee that’s it, there’s nothing to add on top, unless we need to specifically hire something in on your behalf or you want to do something out of the ordinary.
So… if you’re looking for a unique venue with loads of character (and who isn’t) then, to paraphrase our recent guest Robbie Williams, we’re the one.
