The Millennium Forum stands on Newmarket Street close to the River Foyle and is distinctive for its high, rounded corner face. Inside, visitors are greeted with an impressive entrance foyer and a sweeping stairway framed by a mural that takes them down to the auditorium and a marble-floored piazza with a brasserie restaurant.
As well as staging entertainments, the Millennium Forum serves as a state-of-the-art conference venue, with space for up to 1,000 delegates and meeting rooms for seminars, business meetings, fairs and other events.
Shows and Events at the Millennium Forums
With a seating capacity of 1,000, the Millennium Forum is a clever blend of traditional and modern, with classic three-level seating that can be transformed into a smaller, more intimate venue by lowering the ceiling.
The theatre is renowned for its varied and imaginative calendar of events spanning everything from concerts, comedy and dramas to children’s shows and musicals. Since its opening, it has hosted acts and shows such as Grease, Riverdance and Evita, comedians such as Lee Evans and Billy Connolly, and music artistes including Bryan Adams, the Drifters and Nathan Carter.
With its exciting events programmes, a visit to the Millennium Forum is part and parcel of enjoying the full Londonderry experience.
