Auditorium at Rothamsted Conference Centre
About this space
Our state-of-the-art 300-seater Auditorium is our flagship event space. We attract national and international business and science conferences and events to this magnificent space.
The Auditorium can be used for a variety of events including formal conferences, business briefings, meetings, product launches, staff away days, lectures, awards ceremonies, musical performances, press briefings, training days, filming and more - the sky is the limit!
With the very latest in audiovisual and media streaming capabilities, we are fast becoming Hertfordshire's go-to venue of choice for all events professionals looking to host a large-scale event.
This space can be used in conjunction with our Plaza area, which is perfect for networking, lunches, drinks receptions, and exhibitions before, during, or after your auditorium event.
Direct access from the stage area at the front of the auditorium to our lower ground floor is easy, meaning simple access to a range of breakout rooms for presenters to prepare.
Clients who book our venue exclusively will also be offered solutions for live streaming to other rooms.
