About Culham Conference Centre

Culham Conference Centre is situated in the beautiful countryside of rural Oxfordshire, sharing its location with the world-class fusion research centre, Culham Centre for Fusion Energy (CCFE), located at Culham Science Centre.

Culham is the perfect setting for like-minded professionals to get together and be… professional. And you are welcome to take a look for yourself. Their friendly staff are on hand to show you around.

Rooms and facilities

The conference centre is quite versatile, with a choice of seven purpose-built conference rooms, each providing the latest HD ready technology and comfort. It can host large lectures in the tiered lecture theatre, networking in the open foyer areas or boardroom meetings for 2 to 24 with ease.

TOSCA, CLEO, DITE, ZETA, PHOENIX and COMPASS meeting rooms can cater for 2 to 70 delegates. The John Adams lecture theatre seats up to 234 delegates in a tiered theatre style, ideal for prestigious, large-scale events and presentations.

Food and drink

The centre offers excellent food and exceptional service. The seasonal hospitality menus are designed and produced by their head chef and his dedicated in-house team who ensure that everything is prepared to perfection.

If you are planning an event that requires something a little different, such as a themed event, contact the team, who will be happy to discuss your requirements.

Alternatively, you may choose to have lunch in the restaurant, where you can expect to receive the same high-quality options and service. Here you can choose from a wide selection of freshly prepared hot meals and delicious desserts.
