Cambridge University and the Cambridge Colleges offer an
extensive portfolio of venues, which can be hired for all
kinds of functions. Each has its own personality and appeal;
so whether you require a traditional room for a family
celebration, academic ambience for a board meeting, or a
state-of-the-art auditorium for an international conference,
we can source the right location for you.
Conference Cambridge is the University's official, free
venue-finding service and it's our aim to find the perfect
host for your event.
Over 100 lecture theatres and 250 private function rooms
are available for many corporate and academic events,
including one day meetings, lectures and dinners.
These can be held in boardroom, classroom, flat and
tiered-theatre styles, with staging, exhibition space and
conference offices as required. In addition, we can put you
in touch with local companies providing support services.
Residential conferences can be hosted in Colleges during
vacation periods. Accommodation comprises comfortable
student bedrooms; some have shared bathroom facilities,
but many are en-suite and finished to an executive
standard. During term-time, we can provide dedicated,
non-academic, conference facilities, or source
accommodation with local hotels.
Outstanding cuisine is available to those booking private
dinners and we endeavour to meet any special dietary
requirements. During the summer months, you can enjoy
strawberries and cream in open gardens and at Christmas,
panelled, candle-lit rooms offer a unique festive feel.
We build a profile of your event and circulate it to all
our venues, so you don't have to contact each venue
independently; those with facilities that match your
requirements and availability will then contact you directly.
We strongly recommend that you visit before your event
and we would be pleased to help with any enquiries that
you may have regarding travel or other activities during
your visit, such as guided tours or punting.
Events we can help with include, but are not limited to:
Residential conferences, day meetings, training days, away
days, lectures, product launches, drinks receptions, alumni
gatherings, award ceremonies, anniversaries, birthday
parties, fine dining and wedding receptions.
Please note:
Only members can get married in the College chapels, but a few
Colleges have licences for civil ceremonies.
Most of our venues offer some parking, but this can be limited
in city centre Colleges.
Due to the historic nature of the buildings, some venues are
better uited for wheelchair access than others
