thestudioleeds completed an expansion of its meeting and training facilities at the end of last year.  

thestudioleeds now occupies both the seventh and eighth floor of the Riverside West building in Leeds.

The expansion has allowed thestudioleeds to add 7,000 sq-ft of meeting space in four new state-of-the-art rooms. In effect, the venue has doubled its capacity and now has a total of 11 events rooms

The new rooms are:

Cheer– the second largest room at thestudioleeds sating up to 110 delegates theatre style - with its own private balcony.

Matter– seating up to 82 delegates theatre style with access to an outdoor balcony.

Mind– seating up to 80 delegates theatre style also with access to the outside balcony.

Succeed– seating nine delegates boardroom style – no outside balcony but with plenty of natural daylight.

All the rooms have been fitted with state-of-the-art AV equipment, including integrated sound systems, Apple TV and HDMI data projection.

thestudioLeeds offers unlimited tea and coffee, free wi-fi connection plus award-winning meals cooked on-site with locally sourced ingredients.

Julian Kettleborough, Commercial Director at thestudio commented: “Our expansion has gone exceptionally well and we’re extremely excited that our capacity has increased as a result. Since opening almost two years ago, we’ve had more success than we had ever predicted in this incredible city and we’ve built up a loyal customer base. With only one floor we were restricted on numbers, so had found ourselves having to turn away these supportive customers, which was incredibly hard to do. Now, however, we’ll be able to welcome them back with open arms and deliver our award-winning service to them with rooms tailor made for their requirements.”

thestudioLeeds is located at Riverside West in Whitehall Road in the centre of Leeds – a ten-minute walk from Leeds Central station.
