Whether you're looking for a cinematic experience with our auditorium or want a versatile event space suitable for conferences, corporate dinners, meetings, networking events, and showcases, Action Stations is the perfect venue for you. With its large open spaces and enclosed Horizon suite, perfect for breakout areas, Action Stations is an ideal space ready to be transformed to suit all your event needs.

Our events team will guide you through every step of the process, so planning doesn't have to be overwhelming. From the initial enquiry to the last guest's departure, we will provide seamless support to make your experience as stress-free and enjoyable as we can.
