Auditorium
With a handy location next to Blackfriars station, sweeping views across the Thames and a stack of spaces, this striking venue ticks some important boxes for organisers. Its 600-seat auditorium has a huge stage with easy street access for loading as well as ample breakout space. The two main function facilities, the River Rooms, interconnecting and named after their impressive river views, are self-contained with a separate entrance. In addition, the centre has just emerged from a £750,000 upgrade of its first-floor exhibition and meeting facilities, the Newgate Suite, which holds up to 40 stands and can also be broken down into four smaller meeting rooms.
