Curving around the northern end of the Auditorium on Level 2 at the rear of the stage is a smaller versatile venue - served by catering bar facilities and smaller adjacent rooms, it can accommodate performers or conference delegates in workshop sessions.

Ideal for hosting small conferences, break-out sessions or workshops and for intimate cocktail functions, buffets, lunches, formal dinners and staff/corporate Christmas functions.
