University of Bristol

About the venue

The University of Bristol, as custodian of some of the city's finest buildings, blends seamlessly with the elegance and bustle of Georgian Clifton and the leafy downlands high above the Avon Gorge, offering excellent venues for conferences, meetings and social events.

By virtue of its role as a centre of learning and research, the University has many flexible facilities including modern tiered lecture theatres, large halls, exhibition areas, attractive meeting rooms and extensive sports facilities. Bedroom accommodation, including many en-suite rooms, is situated in Clifton offering all the amenities of a bustling city and/or Stoke Bishop, a quiet suburban setting adjacent to acres of open downland. Professional catering teams in every venue offer a high standard of catering and flexibility for everything from a working lunch to a formal conference dinner; from a drinks reception to parties and presentations. The University is easily accessible by road, rail and Bristol International Airport is only 20 minutes from the University and offers a comprehensive service for flights within the UK and Europe. A dedicated, professional conference team offer support throughout from the choice of venue to delivery of service. So allow our professional conference and catering team to extend a warm welcome to you, your colleagues and guests.
