The centre is perfect for small conferences and seminars of varying sizes. In addition, to the theatre, there are 2 large rooms with a seating capacity of 60 in each; both rooms are equipped with data projectors and screen, clear access to toilets as well as kitchenette facilities. The nature and variety of spaces, within the centre, make it ideal for large presentations, product launches, book launches, auctions and charity fund raisers and break out areas for smaller presentations.
