We manage the space bookings outside the Rootes Building and the Students' Union which include the Piazza and Benefactors Place.

Societies, departments, staff and students can hold events, usually with no cost. The spaces make the most of the available seating and lighting so all campus users can enjoy the events.

- Usually there is no cost. Sometimes charges may apply but you'll be advised in advance.
- Bookings should be made at least seven working days in advance of your event.
- If your event requires use of the Big Screen or the audio feed muted, please email
- Holding an event is not possible until you've received email confirmation from our team.
