Keele University
Keele Conferences & Events offers some of the most diverse and popular facilities in Staffordshire and the central England region.
Delegates can take advantage of the large rural campus at Keele University, which features nine lecture theatres (hosting 30 - 400), as well as 37 seminar rooms, perfect for breakouts or smaller meetings (hosting 8 - 100). In addition, a large 650sqm exhibition suite, as well as a 1,000sqm sports centre, offers flexible spaces, perfect for exhibitions and large events.
In stark contrast to these modern facilities is the 19th century Grade II listed Keele Hall. Surrounded by acres of woodland and gardens, its magnificent Ballroom is the largest conference and banqueting venue in Staffordshire, and can host up to 600, great for gala dinners or events.
Over at the purpose-built Keele Management Centre, a further 11 meeting rooms are available, as well as a 200 seat restaurant, lounge and internet cafe. This self-contained venue provides accommodation for 39 all year round, in addition to the 2,000 rooms that are available across the campus outside of term time.
All venues feature state-of-the-art AV and technical support as well as free Wi-Fi in main delegate areas. The events team offer a complete support package, which includes the development of a total event booking management service.
Keele is located on the outskirts of Stoke-on-Trent, just 10 minutes from the M6 motorway and Stoke station, 20 minutes from Crewe station, and less than one hour from three International airports. Central London is less than two hours away and there is ample free parking.
