Birmingham & Midland Institute

The Birmingham & Midland Institute offers a choice of rooms for organisers planning meetings, training sessions, conferences and performances in central Birmingham. Set within a Grade II* listed building, the venue combines historic surroundings with practical facilities for events of different sizes.

Its rooms range from smaller spaces suited to board meetings and workshops to larger halls and auditoria. The Lyttelton Theatre can seat up to 240 people, while other rooms accommodate groups from around 10 to 80, depending on the layout. The variety gives planners options for focused sessions, presentations, training days and performances, with selected rooms offering theatre-style or cabaret seating.

Rooms include equipment such as projectors or wall-mounted screens, Wi-Fi and, in some spaces, flipcharts. The Institute also has in-house catering for food and refreshments, which can help organisers plan the day in one location. Room hire is available for half-day or full-day bookings, with arrangements varying by room.

The building is on Margaret Street, close to Birmingham city-centre transport links and within walking distance of Snow Hill station. Some spaces are wheelchair accessible, although access varies by room, so planners should check requirements with the venue before booking. Hiring a room also supports the Institute's charitable aims and its cultural and educational programme. For event planners seeking an established Birmingham setting for a business meeting, conference, training day or performance, the Institute provides a distinctive collection of bookable spaces with useful on-site facilities.
