Another unique feature of the building is the lecture theatre. The lecture theatre was added to the Institute buildings in 1902 and was built to the same design as the lecture theatre of the Royal Society in London.
With its perfect acoustics and intimate yet dignified atmosphere the theatre is still used today by members of the Mining Institute as well as a number of other companies, associations and societies, thus preserving a tradition observed on this site for some considerable time.
The Lecture Theatre is suitable for a talks, presentations and lectures and seats 100 in the theatre style tiered seating.
The hire cost does not include the hire of any audio visual equipment however you are welcome to bring your own or arrange for hired equipment to be bought into the room.
