About

The Calman Learning Centre - The main lecture theatre complex on the University's Lower Mountjoy (Science) site. 

It includes a 400 seat lecture theatre and two 260 seat lecture theatres. 

These rooms can linked by video allowing over 900 delegates to view the same speaker. There are also two flexible flat floored rooms and a cafe area allowing the flexibility to be able to cope with most events. 

The Calman Learning Centre can be booked in conjunction with bedrooms (available outside of University term time) at one of our nearby colleges, only a few minutes' walk away, so that this then becomes the ideal venue for any prominent residential conference.

From international residential conferences, to formal banquets and wedding receptions, Durham's unique qualities are guaranteed to make any event a successful and memorable occasion. We can provide you with a dedicated service, tailored to your specific needs.

Event Durham is dedicated to providing excellence, hence offers a wide range of services which can be tailored to your specific requirements. Our world-class facilities are complemented by the historic and stunning back drop of Durham city, allowing for a truly memorable experience. With an extensive range of venues Durham can offer the perfect location and facilities for conferences, meetings and workshops, weddings and parties, residential trips and bed and breakfast. Our award winning team will help provide the perfect event and our Event Management Service is available to take care of the administration and execution of the finer details.
