What do we offer?
Planning for a school ball may seem a little daunting, so we want to help make this a fun and exciting process from beginning to end. We are more than capable of transforming our Stadium from a classic gymnasium prom setting to a beautifully decked-out ball room. The main floor has the ability to accommodate a school ball of around 150 to 800+ guests. We have ample space and high ceilings that will complement your creative visions, a spacious dance-floor, and staging suitable for a DJ and sets. Above all, we have experienced and competent staff who are dedicated to work alongside you to help ensure you have a night to remember. ​
