Keele University Events and Conferencing

Keele University Events and Conferencing provides event spaces across its Staffordshire campus, with the historic Keele Hall at its heart. Set among gardens, lakes and parkland, this Grade II listed mansion offers an atmospheric setting for weddings, private celebrations, business meetings and conferences. Its period rooms combine original architectural features with facilities for contemporary events.

Keele Hall has a choice of rooms for different group sizes and formats. The Great Hall can host larger gatherings and can be used alongside adjoining rooms, while the Salvin Room suits banquets and meetings. The Old Library offers a more intimate space for private dining or day meetings, and smaller rooms accommodate board meetings and breakout sessions. Across the wider campus, organisers can also find flexible spaces for meetings, conferences and exhibitions, with accommodation and other university facilities close by.

The venue team works with organisers from initial planning through to the event itself. Support can include advice on room layouts, delegate registration, speaker arrangements, exhibition management and event technology. Presentation facilities and Wi-Fi are available, and hybrid or virtual conference options can be discussed. Catering is part of the event offer, with the university's hospitality team helping to serve guests.

For couples, Keele Hall's wedding spaces can be arranged for the ceremony, drinks reception, wedding breakfast and evening celebration. The grounds provide a scenic backdrop, while nearby hotel accommodation gives guests an option to stay after the festivities. The combination of heritage rooms, flexible campus facilities and hands-on event support makes Keele a practical choice for organisers planning both formal business gatherings and personal occasions.
