The Beacon Museum in Whitehaven in Cumbria is developing a new £1million conference centre. It is expected to open in spring 2017.

The ground floor area of the conference centre will feature a curved glass wall with views over Whitehaven’s historic harbour. The space will accommodate up to 30 delegates. 

The conference centre will be equipped with high speed wi-fi and multimedia presentation facilities - together with the services of an in-house management team. In-house catering facilities will be available.

The Beacon Museum illustrates the history and development of the local area.

The Beacon Museum is located in West Strand in Whitehaven, a short walk from Whitehaven station. On-site parking is available.
