£7 million investment in our facilities
Over the past few months, we have invested over £7m to completely transform our events facilities on campus and we can’t wait to show you the results!
Canham Turner (previously Staff House) features stylish new meeting, eating and social spaces which are delivered in bright, modern interiors. These facilities benefit from an improved food service, supported by a new state-of-the-art kitchen.
The improvements allow us to continue to provide a first-class service as one Hull’s leading conference and events venues.
WE LOOK FORWARD TO WELCOMING YOU SOON.

80S Rewind Party Nights
80S Rewind Party Night
Most people love chocolate but know very little about it or how it is made into the tasty treats they eat. But there’s more to chocolate than meets the eye (and mouth)! Let Jon guide you through the history and mythology of chocolate. You’ll also taste a range of different types of chocolate from mass produced, through to coverture and single origin, learning how to taste it properly using your senses and comparing chocolate made with cocoa from around the world. Towards the end of the evening you’ll be given a selection of Jon’s handmade chocolates to enjoy.

Bar opens at 6.15pm Dinner served at 7pm

The aim of the game is to match the wine with the correct description. Can you identify the difference in bouquet between a Merlot and a Pinot Noir? Can you tell your Chardonnay from a cheeky little Sauvignon?
Two panellists will describe the wine in front of you but only one description will be the correct one for the wine in the glass; the other will be totally false and full of red herrings! A fun way to test your knowledge on wine, as well as sampling some great varieties!
This event is not to be taken too seriously but, for the intrepid winning table, there will be a prize!
LIGHT SUPPERHomemade Lasagne Served with salad, coleslaw and garlic bread
