Shakespeare Memorial Room | The Library of Birmingham

In 1882, John Henry Chamberlain created the Shakespeare Memorial Room for the city’s Victorian library. Following an impressive restoration by local craftsmen, The Memorial Room is now situated at the very top of the Library of Birmingham at level 9. What better space to host small weddings and civil ceremonies (up to 40 people), exclusive dining (up to 20 people), and drinks receptions (up to 45 people)? If you're booking this historical venue, you can also enjoy the stunning panoramic view of the city thanks to the exclusive access to the adjoining Skyline Viewpoint.
