Dewars Centre

Dewars Centre is a versatile event venue in the heart of Perth, offering flexible spaces for conferences, exhibitions, meetings and large-scale gatherings. Operated by Live Active, the centre combines practical event facilities with a distinctive sporting setting, making it a useful choice for organisers planning business, community and leisure-led events.

The main Strathmore Hall, an ice hall available for hire from April to August, provides an unusual and adaptable backdrop for larger conferences, exhibitions, showcases and public events. The venue also has a dedicated meeting room for groups of up to 60 people, equipped with a media projector and sound system for microphones and speakers. This makes the centre suitable for presentations, training sessions, seminars, workshops, networking meetings and smaller corporate gatherings.

Organisers benefit from an experienced venue team, with Dewars Centre having supported Perthshire’s conference and events market for more than 25 years. Its central location is only a short distance from Perth city centre and within easy reach of the train and bus stations. On-site underground parking provides around 300 spaces, including accessible lift access into the building.

Accessibility is a strong feature, with ramp access, accessible parking bays, toilets, changing facilities and an induction loop system in the Muirhead Suite. The centre also includes an on-site café, creating convenient options for refreshments during meetings and events. With ice skating, curling, fitness facilities and family activities also available, Dewars Centre can add an active or team-focused element to selected programmes. It is a practical Perth venue for organisers seeking adaptable space, reliable facilities and straightforward transport access.
