Conferencing

The natural place to meet 

Set within the beautiful Millennium Country Park and less than 10 minutes from Junction 13 of the M1, the Forest Centre offers purpose-built conference spaces for groups as large as 105 (theatre style) or as intimate as two.

With views over the Park, all our rooms enjoy great natural daylight and benefit from free Wi-Fi and air conditioning. The Forest Centre has ample parking, space for coaches and over 500 acres of outdoor space, literally on our doorstep.

Our dedicated, friendly team will be on hand throughout to ensure that your event runs smoothly and our in-house caterers will provide delicious food and drink to keep your delegates refreshed.

Coronavirus (COVID 19): We will support organisers to deliver safe and successful events, whilst being able to offer more flexibility over layout and operation for individual bookings. 

Your money grows further at the Forest Centre

As a social enterprise and the home of an environmental charity, The Forest Centre is the perfect venue for organisations wanting to deliver on their own environmental ideals. We’re passionate about operating in a sustainable way and you can read more about our green values here. By holding your event with us, you will be supporting our parent charity and its goal of planting another 5 million trees.
