Main Lecture Theatre

'The Lecture Theatre' - a modern purpose built theatre

The Main Lecture Theatre is suited to conferences, presentations, lectures, continuing professional development seminars, product launches, press conferences, AGMs, screenings and trade shows.

This modern, purpose built theatre with fixed, gently tiered leather seating provides a spacious and comfortable venue for 300 delegates. It houses state of the art audio visual facilities, is fully air-conditioned with wooden Gustav acoustic panelled walls.

Our wireless delegate-response and voting system enhances delegate participation by eliminating the need for roving microphones and enabling them to interact via individual electronic voting and texting. These results can be instantaneously projected onto the screen in graphical or other selected formats

Situated on the ground floor, it has easy access for wheelchairs, including removable seats and a purpose built registration desk available in the Main Foyer.

The Max Rayne Atrium and/or the Events Dining Room on the ground floor next to the Theatre can be allocated for your catering throughout your event.

A fully trained dedicated in-house audio-visual technician is included in the room hire charge, Monday - Friday from 8am - 6pm.
