The Palacio de Congresos Conde Ansúrez in Valladolid can host conferences, seminars, training days and banquets for up to 600 people in its Paraninfo auditorium, with meeting rooms for 40 to 150 guests on the floors below. The building is managed by the Fundación General de la Universidad de Valladolid and is arranged on four levels, with gardens at the entrance.
Seminars and company events
The center is built around congresses and professional meetings. The site lists multipurpose spaces for courses, congresses, concerts and exhibitions, and an event management service that can be full or partial. An organiser can rent the rooms alone or add services: interpreting, protocol staff, signage, promotion material, telephone and internet infrastructure, and live or online broadcasting. The Paraninfo suits a plenary session, while the smaller rooms on the lower floors serve for breakouts, workshops or committee meetings.
Rooms and capacities
The Paraninfo is on the second floor. It holds 600 people in a room of 26 by 20.5 meters, with a height of 6 meters and a wooden coffered ceiling that the site credits with good acoustics. Equipment includes video and cinema projection, a desktop computer and connections for laptops or tablets, Wi-Fi, a public address connection and simultaneous or deferred translation.
On the first floor, Sala Claudio Moyano covers 87 square meters and takes 45 to 75 people.

Calixto Valverde and Escultores Tomé elsewhere in the building, along with the vestibules, corridors and gardens. Every room has air conditioning, heating and natural light.
