About this space
Originally constructed in 1890, the Smith Centre has been elegantly preserved to present four spaces of varying size that suit a wide range of events such as intimate dinners, drinks receptions and product launches. Among the original features is an open-plan Courtyard area which can be enjoyed in conjunction with daytime hire of the Salon. During the summers, the Courtyard serves as an ideal space for an outdoor drinks reception followed by a seated dinner in the Salon.
Accommodating 80 guests for a dinner and 200 guests for a reception, the Smith Centre provides versatility throughout.
