About East Foyer Area
220 Standing / Reception
The East Foyer Area at our Chemistry Building transforms the traditional university space into something quite special for events. This 424-square-metre expanse welcomes up to 220 guests for standing receptions, with natural light streaming through floor-to-ceiling windows that overlook the campus grounds. We've hosted everything from tech product launches to art exhibitions here, and the space adapts beautifully each time. The polished floors reflect the daylight, while the neutral walls become a canvas for whatever atmosphere you want to create. Corporate clients particularly appreciate the professional backdrop combined with the relaxed energy that only a university setting provides. Your guests will find the open layout perfect for mingling, with comfortable seating clusters tucked into corners for those important side conversations. We've equipped the space with projector capabilities, flatscreen TV displays, and a PA system that reaches every corner without overwhelming intimate conversations. The WiFi handles heavy traffic effortlessly, tested by hundreds of students daily. Getting here couldn't be simpler. Clifton Down station sits just a short walk away for those arriving from Temple Meads, while Redland station serves visitors from the north. We'll send you detailed directions, and our team greets every group at reception to ensure nobody gets lost in the university precinct. The foyer works brilliantly as a standalone venue or combined with our lecture theatres for larger conferences. We've seen creative setups ranging from exhibition stands running the length of the space to pop-up bars serving welcome drinks. The adjoining areas mean catering flows seamlessly, whether you're planning cocktails and canapés or a full buffet spread. Book during university holidays or weekends for guaranteed exclusive access. Our events team knows every corner of this building and will help you make the most of this surprisingly versatile space.
