Clyde Auditorium
The SEC Armadillo is a stylish, purpose-built venue and a Glasgow landmark.
SEC Armadillo
The SEC’s flagship conference space, the ‘SEC Armadillo’, offers the perfect recipe for meetings success. Designed by the world-renowned architectural practice, Foster + Partners, the iconic building is one of Glasgow’s best-loved landmarks featuring a 1,183 – 3,000-seater auditorium and adjacent breakout spaces.
‘Gala’ and ‘Forth’ are the perfect companions to the main auditorium with capacity for 150 theatre-style and 340-theatre style, respectively, while the Firth Bar on the first floor is a fantastic focal point that lends itself for informal breakouts and receptions.
Gala
Gala is ideal for breakouts. It can accommodate 150 theatre-style, or can be subdivided into two spaces each with capacity for 60 theatre-style.
Forth
Forth is a sizeable, flexible meeting space adjacent to the iconic Auditorium.
