About First Floor Gallery
250 Standing / Reception
150 Seated
The First Floor Gallery at Midlands Arts Centre opens up as a blank canvas where art exhibitions transform into celebration spaces. We've watched countless events unfold here, from wedding receptions spilling across the polished wooden floors to corporate launches that make full use of our colour-changing wall lighting system. This expansive gallery space welcomes up to 250 guests for standing receptions or 150 for seated dinners. The soaring ceilings create an airy atmosphere that photographers love, while the pristine white walls become your backdrop, whether we're washing them in purple for a birthday party or keeping them gallery-bright for daytime celebrations. Our team regularly reconfigures the space, arranging round tables with crisp linens for formal dinners or clearing the floor entirely for dancing. The wooden flooring throughout adds natural warmth, particularly striking when we bring in decorative lighting elements like our illuminated trees. We position these to complement your chosen layout, creating intimate corners within the larger space or framing key areas like the bar or DJ setup. The gallery's flexibility means we can adapt to your vision, whether that's long banquet tables for a wedding breakfast or cocktail furniture scattered throughout for networking events. Being on the first floor gives your guests views over Cannon Hill Park through the building, with lift access ensuring everyone can join the celebration. The KILN café and bar downstairs provides catering options, from canapés during drinks receptions to full three-course meals. Our location in Birmingham's cultural quarter means plenty of parking and public transport options, with the park setting offering photo opportunities just steps away. The creative energy of our working arts centre adds something special to every event here, where gallery exhibitions give way to personal celebrations in a space designed for bringing people together.
