Why choose the Cambridge Corn Exchange and Guildhall?
One of the most famous cities in the world, Cambridge is the perfect destination for conferences of all sizes.
Located in the heart of the city the Cambridge Corn Exchange and Guildhall are ideally positioned venues in which to hold your conference or event.
Both are less than two minutes’ walk from the famous King’s College and close to the other 30 Cambridge University colleges, all of which have their own history and interesting stories to accompany them. Beyond the college lies the River Cam where punting and Pimms-drinking takes place.
Just 100 metres from the front of the Corn Exchange sits The Eagle, one of the oldest pubs in Cambridgeshire and, most famously, the place where the discovery of DNA was announced.
The Guildhall fronts onto the historic market place, one of the longest running in the country offering everything from fresh fruit, vegetables, cheese, fish and continental breads, to arts, crafts and clothes. Surrounding the market square and beyond are a range of independent and high street shops, cafes, restaurants and pubs.
