Need a Space? The Phoenix Has You Covered

Whether you're planning a meeting, hosting a workshop, running a class, or staging something special — The Phoenix Theatre has a space to suit.

Our much-loved venue isn’t just home to incredible performances and community events. It’s also a versatile, characterful place to hire — ideal for creatives, professionals, educators, and event organisers alike.

Here’s a look at what we offer and how we can help bring your next idea to life.

🎭 The Theatre

Our recently refurbished 75-seat theatre is the beating heart of our building — a warm, intimate space with a big personality. With tiered seating, with the ability to include flexible ground-level seating, we can comfortably accommodate up to 100 guests, making it the perfect choice for:

• Performances & showcases
• Community meetings
• Film screenings & talks
• Training sessions & conferences
• Multi-sensory or inclusive events

Fully equipped and carefully maintained, our theatre space adapts beautifully to a wide range of uses. It’s already played host to everything from high-profile acts to grassroots performances, and we love seeing it used in creative, unexpected ways.

🕺 The Dance Studio

Light, bright, and professionally kitted out — our fully renovated Dance Studio is a favourite for fitness instructors, movement-based workshops, and performers in training.

It features:

• Professional dance flooring
• Mirrors & wall bars
• Plenty of natural light
• Sound system on request

We already host a packed timetable of regular dance and fitness classes, but we’re always on the lookout for new sessions, styles, or instructors. Whether you're a yoga teacher, choreographer, or creative facilitator — let’s talk.

👥 Conference & Meeting Spaces

Need something more corporate or collaborative? We've got you covered.

Our boardroom-style conference room comfortably seats up to 24 people, offering a quiet, professional setting for:

• Meetings
• Training days
• Team-building workshops
• Strategy sessions

Looking for something a little larger? The main theatre space can also be adapted for conference-style layouts, accommodating up to 100 attendees. Perfect for panel discussions, seminars, or public consultations.

☕ The Extras

We know that the little things make a big difference. That’s why we offer a range of optional extras to make your booking run smoothly, including:

• Tea, coffee, and biscuits
• Locally sourced lunches from our friends at Headley Fine Foods
• Screen and projector hire
• Silent Disco Technology Hire
• Bar service (subject to availability & operating hours)
• Technical support/Equipment
• And more
