VR Hire Swindon
A railway museum whose Great Western Hall takes 750, a Grade II Art Deco hall for twelve hundred, and one of the busiest office corridors on the M4. Swindon's event rooms owe almost everything to Brunel.
We know Swindon's venues
The County Ground sits directly on the Magic Roundabout — five mini-roundabouts arranged in a ring around a sixth, and genuinely disorienting for anyone approaching it with a loaded van for the first time. The trick is entering from the correct arm, because taking the wrong one means a full circuit and another attempt. We know which arm serves which entrance, minor until you've watched a driver go round three times.
STEAM is the venue people remember. It occupies the old Great Western railway works, and the Great Western Hall handles 750 with GWR-themed boardrooms alongside — a considerably better backdrop than another hotel suite. MECA's restored Art Deco hall covers the larger evening events, and out at junction 16 the DoubleTree offers twelve thousand square feet of meeting space with the parking that an M4-corridor venue takes for granted.

Travel
Travel within Swindon and north Wiltshire is included in every quote. County Ground jobs are approached from the correct arm of the Magic Roundabout as a matter of routine, which saves more time than it sounds like it should.
Booking
An easy diary by South West standards. A December Friday wants six weeks' notice, and otherwise a fortnight generally secures both the date and the room you wanted.
