Venue Testimonials

I attended a meeting in the theatre here. The space was excellent for a gathering of several hundred people – it offered a sense of intimacy while ensuring proximity to the speakers. The event was held after hours, so the museum was closed, but it still felt pretty majestic. I’ll have to return during the day to explore the exhibitions properly.

I visited the museum for a product launch event, which was held in the room featuring the minerals exhibition. The displays were stunning, and they added a captivating atmosphere to the event. After the event, we got to enjoy a banquet, and the food was absolutely delicious!

Dianna M

I was lucky enough to attend an arts event at the museum. I really enjoyed the free flow drinks and taxidermy displays. The event was held in the room with the enormous blue whale bones floating above your head, which made the entire experience feel spectacular!
