Circus is the archetypal ‘blank canvas’ space. Retaining many of its original, industrial period features, the venue is a fabulous choice for a range of events including gala dinners, product launches, conferences and award ceremonies. Its high, vaulted, glass ceilings fill the spaces with natural light and the exposed, red brick walls create a warm and welcoming atmosphere

In a nutshell the venue boasts:

·        Standing capacity of 500

·        8,000 sq ft of floorspace

·        A large Courtyard

·        A full license

·        Multiple breakout rooms
