About venue
Inspirational, vibrant and with a unique energy, The Apex is a refreshing change to conventional meeting and event spaces. An award-winning venue – opened in October 2010 and from the very beginning, it was clear something very special had been created. 

The beauty of the build, the comfort of the auditorium and the outstanding acoustics were quickly applauded by artists as diverse as Julian Lloyd Webber, the European Union Chamber Orchestra, the Brodsky String Quartet, folk/rock band Fairport Convention and Rockers. 

As well as being a prestigious music venue, The Apex hosts a variety of community and corporate events, offering local residents and visitors from further afield a unique and exciting setting for all manner of social and business occasions.
