A dynamic campus setting that reflects the University’s research ambitions and ideal for fast-paced programmes.
Recent investment in the Innovation Campus has brought a state-of-the art research, teaching and meeting facilities onstream, the utterly modern meeting and event spaces give this venue a distinctive look-and-feel.

A meeting and event destination in an exciting and vibrant city setting.
Cardiff is an unapologetically youthful destination. For many regular meeting and events attendees, Cardiff is a new destination that must be seen. Known as home to the BBC Studios productions of the Doctor Who series and more, the city has a cultural and civic arts programme that is proudly on display across the city.

Over 2,000 quality bedrooms available throughout July, August and until mid-September at budget friendly rates. All year-round meeting and event facilities for up to 450 delegates. Clever use of indoor and outdoor public and social meeting space and access to The Cardiff Collection of heritage venues (including Cardiff Castle, Cardiff City Hall and The Mansion House) for social programme and gala dinner options.

Their largest campus upgrade in a generation will deliver the Centre for Student Life, a service-led project delivered in partnership with the Students’ Union. This will result in new meeting facilities for 550 delegates.

Cardiff is Europe’s smallest capital city and both campus and city are easily walkable.
