Conference and event venue near Liverpool

Yes. There's a free 50-space car park right outside, which is rare at our prices: usually only big city conference centres have their own. For larger events there's an overflow car park across the main road, and a parking attendant will point your guests to it.

We're open Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 5pm. We're flexible about early set-up and late clearing away, and evening and weekend events are available on request. Tell us your timings and we'll do our best to fit them.

We mainly work with our catering partner, Superior Catering, so the food and service are consistent. If you have a special request, talk to us first: other arrangements can sometimes be made with our approval.

Yes. Tea and coffee are included all day, in or near every space you book. For food, Superior Catering can put together a menu for your event, including vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options. You order from them and pay them directly, and we'll put you in touch when you book.

The Auditorium has a stage, a lectern, microphones, a projector, a sound system and lighting. A technician sets up and runs the AV on the day; this is charged, and needed for every Auditorium booking. Tell us what your speakers need and we'll have it ready before you arrive.

Events count as larger bookings. Larger bookings are fully chargeable once booked. If you cancel, the full cost is payable. The same applies if you reduce the number of rooms, days or hours. You can move a larger booking once, as long as you tell us at least 2 weeks before the original date. The new date needs to be within 6 months. What you've paid moves with you. If the new date costs more, you pay the difference. If it costs less, the original price stands. Changes after that, or with less than 2 weeks' notice, count as a cancellation. We understand plans change. If something genuinely unexpected happens, talk to us. We'll look at exceptional circumstances case by case.

Yes. 25% deposit to secure your dates. We'll invoice you when you book. Please pay within 5 business days, or we may release the dates. The deposit is non-refundable. The balance is invoiced 2 weeks before your first booking date. Booking less than 2 weeks ahead? We'll invoice the full amount when you book. You can pay by bank transfer (details on your invoice) or by card over the phone. PO numbers are welcome, but we still need the deposit to secure your dates.

Your event talked through beforehand, the rooms set to your layout, hosts checking on you all day, tea and coffee in or near every space, a screen or projector with cables and a flipchart in every breakout room, 1Gb fibre WiFi and free parking. The Auditorium technician and food are extra.

The Auditorium seats up to 100 theatre style, or 60 cabaret at tables (layouts with tables cost extra). On top of that there are six breakout rooms for 20 to 30 people each, theatre style, and the Pod for up to 4.
