About this space

This Birmingham Lecture Theatre is the jewel in our venue’s crown.

From a private green room for speakers leading directly onto the stage to foldaway laptop tables in the seats with individual power sockets, the Kingston Lecture Theatre offers all the little touches that make it the perfect choice for a wide range of events in Birmingham for up to 150 guests. This premier lecture theatre is ideal for hosting talks, seminars as part of a conference, or even a pop-up cinema experience. The cutting-edge facilities on offer will delight planners and delegates alike.

The beautifully designed auditorium, which underwent extensive renovation upgrades in 2019, benefits from cutting-edge AV features, from HD projector walls and a widescreen display, to impactful LED coloured lighting.
