About
Our internationally renowned, award winning Museum is the place to discover the amazing archaeology of the Cotswolds. Many of the spectacular treasures on display are from Roman Cirencester, known as Corinium, Roman Britain’s second largest city. These create an unparalleled location for your event.
Exclusive and Elegant Entertaining
The Museum’s iconic Hare Mosaic provides the backdrop to an expansive and atmospheric gallery which can be hired out for exclusive entertaining when the museum is closed to the public. With a graceful view of the Roman Garden to one side this spacious area provides a unique space for entertaining clients and employees alike. With a capacity of 100 people standing or 50 seated, the area can be laid out to suit your specific requirements.
