Business Tourism
 
Walsall is the ideal location for your conference combining all the facilities of a lively, modern town in a surprisingly rural setting. The West Midlands is the second largest business tourism destination in the UK and attracts millions of visitors to the region every year.
 
Situated at the heart of Britain’s motorway network and within half an hours drive from Birmingham, Walsall has excellent transport links and is an attractive destination for your conference or business event.
 
Walsall has an exciting choice of hotels with fully equipped conferencing facilities and meeting rooms such as the award winning Village Hotel.  And for a totally unique venue, The Crossing at St Paul’s can accommodate 200 delegates in a beautifully converted 19th century church.

For larger events a particularly ‘striking’ venue is the Bescot stadium home of Walsall football club. This spectacular setting for up to 500 delegates is conveniently located on the same site as the attractive 120 bed Ramada Encore hotel.
 
The University of Wolverhampton can also offer conferencing and accommodation facilities out of term time and for smaller events, the Locksmith’s Cottage and Leather Museum offer truly memorable venues steeped in the region’s history.
