You can run a 1,000-seat plenary, a 3,500 square metre exhibition and a run of private boardrooms on one site in south Bristol, with 300 parking spaces on the premises and a route in from junction 18 of the M5 along the Portway. The venue says it sits less than two miles from Bristol city centre and eight miles from Bristol Airport. Ashton Gate is the home ground of Bristol City Football Club and the Bristol Bears rugby club, and its events team sells the stands, lounges and concourses for conferences, exhibitions and dinners on non-match days.
