About

The Lecture Hall and Library offer a flexible event space with a total area of 584 sqm, accommodating up to 900 guests in reception style. This space boasts a triple-height ceiling, built-in stage, natural daylight, optional blackout facilities, and flexible wall partitions. There is also direct access to the Lecture Hall and Library from the Grand Foyer on Level 1, which can be used as a convenient registration area if needed.

 

The Lecture Hall and Library combined offer a number of tailored audio-visual options to give you maximum flexibility. Our standard presentation package covers video, audio, and staging, and includes:

 

  • 10-foot 16:9 format standard or rimless floating acrylic screen
  • Christie 7K projector with ultra-wide angle lens system
  • HDMI / VGA input from client laptop
  • K-array KR2 ultra-thin vocal reinforcement system
  • 2 wired lectern microphones
  • Perspex lectern
  • A dedicated AV technician for up to 10 hours, including setup

 

For less complex AV requirements, we additionally offer sound reinforcement-only and projection-only packages. Our audio-visual partner, White Light, can also suggest a range of bespoke technical solutions to support your event.

 

Catering options in the Lecture Hall and Library are as flexible as the space itself, and we have an extensive range of menus to choose from.

 

These range from canapés and grazing menus to bowl food, buffet options, and street food – all partnered with an equally extensive drinks list. Or, if you would prefer a bespoke menu, we can also work with our on-site catering partner to create it for you.

 

Catering stations can be set up in the Library or in a separate breakout area, depending on your preference.
