Now you have been at Millennium Point a couple of weeks, have you got a favourite event space yet?

Marie-Claire – ‘The Auditorium and Platform! There is nowhere else in the Midlands that is comparable to the Auditorium. The Auditorium is so impactful and offers such a range of technical provisions for clients. Platform looks like it belongs on a spaceship, and I like the different aspects of the space and that is manages to blend itself perfectly to all event types. I have never seen a space transform so much from an exhibition to an awards ceremony so effectively.’

Vik, the Event Sales Manager, adds ‘I couldn’t agree more! The giant screen creates the wow factor, and it offers clients a great alternative to a traditional cabaret layout. However, I would add that our space Connect has versatility which makes it a client favourite for a breadth of smaller events. from board and team meetings right through to workshops, training and away days.’
