Conferences and Events

A truly unique venue

As one of Oxford University’s largest colleges, Keble is a popular destination for conferences and events. A distinguishable venue made famous for breaking the traditional mould of Oxford colleges we are now well appreciated by the visitors of our listed buildings.

The purpose built Sloane Robinson development complements the wonderful Victorian buildings, offering conference space for up to 250 residential delegates. A tiered lecture theatre and numerous breakout rooms provide a perfect location to host events. Nearby, the Rick Mather designed Arco overlooks one of Keble’s iconic grass quads and opens in to a 200sqm area great for refreshments and exhibitions.

Meals can be taken in the wonderful gothic dining hall, which can seat 300 people and is the longest hall in Oxford. The stunning design is sure to leave a mark on delegates and with 245 ensuite bedrooms alongside an additional 55 standard rooms, Keble College transforms in to a unique place to hold meetings and events over the vacation periods.

The conference team are dedicated to ensuring that all events at the college are a success and their commitment to each and every booking is what makes the College so highly recommended within the industry.
