The Edinburgh Conference Centre is the purpose-designed facility in the heart of Heriot-Watt University's campus.
 
Our flagship facility, the James Watt Centre, has dedicated conference facilities for up to 600 delegates in addition to 1,000 square metres of exhibition space. Adjacent seminar rooms ensure our facilities offer flexibility whatever the size or objective of your event with competitive rates to suit all budgets.

We maximise the impact of your event by personalising it in a manner that you and your guests can really appreciate. We offer a diverse range of menus and beverages to compliment any event and our experienced staff will work with you to ensure the event meets your needs.

The Centre also provides the convenience of a range of highly skilled specialist support services, including conference co-ordination, audio-visual support and language interpretation.

Set in tranquil parkland on the edge of Edinburgh, the Centre is conveniently located for access to major road networks and air routes and there is ample free parking.

"The Cholesterol Charity held its annual conference at the Edinburgh Conference Centre.  No request was too much and I found the team to be professional, punctual and friendly.

A first class event; Edinburgh Conference Centre is a first-rate conference facility."
Natasha Dougall, July 2010.
