About
Birmingham Rep
Birmingham Rep is one of Birmingham's most distinctive conference and events venues, located on Centenary Square in the heart of the city. As a working producing theatre, the venue combines three professional auditoria with flexible meeting rooms, reception areas and extensive theatrical production facilities.
The venue offers 13 event spaces and accommodates up to 800 delegates, making it suitable for everything from board meetings and workshops to major conferences, product launches, awards, performances and corporate events.
Event Spaces

The stage can also be transformed for events, accommodating up to 240 banquet, 200 cabaret or 400 for a reception.

Why Hire
Birmingham Rep offers considerably more creative freedom than a conventional conference venue. Its three working theatres provide organisers with professional staging, sound, lighting and production infrastructure, while dedicated meeting rooms and reception spaces allow conferences to incorporate breakouts, catering and networking within the same venue.
The House is particularly impressive for major presentations and launches, accommodating 800 theatre-style, with the ability to bring vehicles directly onto the stage. The combination of theatrical production and a central Birmingham location makes The Rep particularly strong for events where presentation and audience experience matter.
