Belgrade Theatre

About the venue

Located in the heart of Coventry the Belgrade Theatre offers a choice of meeting spaces from the traditional to the quirky.

Bring your guests to where Sir Laurence Olivier laid a commemorative stone is 1965 and great actors from Sir Ian McKellen, Dame Barbara Windsor to Jake Quickenden have performed. In addition to the main tiered auditorium with a capacity of 858, there are a further 7 flexible meeting spaces accommodating 4 to 245 guests/delegates. The Belgrade is ideally located in the heart of the 2021 City of Culture, Coventry. And in the heart of the UK, just 80 minutes by train from London or 120 minutes from Manchester. Parking is just a few steps away at the adjacent NCP car park with other parking options available within walking distance of the theatre. The Belgrade is within walking distance of Coventry railway station, a 15 minute train journey from Birmingham International Airport and a 10 minute drive off the major motorway networks M6, M1 and M40. Unlike other venues, at the Belgrade Theatre we don’t just hire you a venue space, we offer a complete package to suit your needs. In addition to room hire we have AV, lighting, sound and stage technicians, set and costume services, catering services, customer service professionals and box office staff all ready to make sure your event runs smoothly. Supporting your CSR ‘Corporate Social Responsibility’ policy – the Belgrade Theatre is a registered charity (no. 219163). This means that all the money given, raised or earned is not distributed as profit but kept and reinvested in the work done by the theatre, for the community, arts and culture.
