Venues in Derby

If you choose to arrive by train, you’ll find your journey takes just over 90 minutes from central London, and less than 30 minutes from Nottingham, Leicester and Birmingham. Plus, access by air is easy as East Midlands Airport is only 30 minutes drive away. The city has a wide range of conference venues and meeting rooms to choose from, such as the Enterprise Centre at the University of Derby (capacity 200), and the Jurys Inn East Midlands Airport (capacity 250). Plus, if you’re looking for luxury or a big-impact, there are excellent functions rooms and party venues available such as Breadsall Priory (a Marriott Hotel property dating back to 1260), and Pride Park Stadium.
