Seminars and company events
Business events are the first use the venue lists. Organisers can book a breakfast briefing, a networking session, a presentation, a private dinner or a cocktail reception. The site describes three ways to hire: the whole venue, a partial hire of the semi-private areas, or a single private room. Exclusive hire takes up to 226 people. The semi-private areas take groups of up to 70.
A minimum spend applies, and food and drink packages are available for each format. The venue says it answers enquiries within 24 hours.
For a smaller meeting, Central View is the private room. It has floor-to-ceiling windows facing the city centre, a flexible layout, an oval table for up to 10 people, a large TV screen, water, and optional catering packages. The maximum capacity is 18 people. The venue suggests it for formal meetings and dinners.
A team session can also run as VEGA Retreat. It gives a group 24-hour access to Central View for board meetings, meals, interactive activities and karaoke. The package covers meals and drinks, a 60-inch TV, a 65-inch interactive whiteboard and unlimited tea, coffee and water. The group can finish the day with bowling on reserved lanes, or hire the lanes privately.
