Meetings and events

At Bruce Castle, we are ready to host your corporate or community event - whether for training, away days, meetings, business conferences or talks.

Encompassing 1,000 years of history in one fascinating location in the historic heart of Tottenham, Bruce Castle is an amazing and unique venue in the borough. If you are looking for something different, Bruce Castle provides an architecturally beautiful and distinctive backdrop for any commercial, private or community event.  

The Museum’s galleries and historic rooms offer characterful spaces to hire. Equipment such as projectors, screens and flipcharts are available for a nominal fee. Extra touches include trails around the Museum, curator-led tours and/or object handling sessions to help make your activities or event even more memorable. A range of options for refreshments are available to complement your event. 

The rooms 

Our gallery spaces and rooms are named and inspired by the main historical figures who designed the different stages of the building of Bruce Castle.

Coleraine Gallery

Located on the first floor, the 18th century Coleraine Gallery was designed by the 3rd Lord Coleraine. Virtually unchanged from Coleraine’s time, with its panelling, fine baroque-style chimney piece and original 18th century oak boards, it is an elegant choice for more intimate events. It is popular for this gallery to be booked as a package with the neighbouring Compton Gallery, and utilised as a breakout room or catering area. Your attendees’ experience will also be enhanced by the gallery's current exhibition as part of their surroundings.
