Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre is a conference centre in the City of Westminster, London. It is located in the heart of the city, a minute's walk from the Palace of Westminster, seat of the United Kingdom's Parliament. It was opened by Her Majesty the Queen in 1986. It is owned by HM Government and its operation is conducted by an executive agency of the Department for Communities and Local Government.
The centre has four main auditoria, seven conference rooms and many smaller rooms.
It specialises in events for between 40 and 1,300 delegates. Due to its location it attracts many high profile meetings. It also has 2,000 square metres of exhibition space.
The Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre is a very successful venue hosting over 400 meetings each year and returning an annual dividend to the Exchequer, thus not reliant on the taxpayer for financial support.
