Our Campuses
The University of Hertfordshire has two campuses: College Lane and de Havilland.
UH Arts + Culture runs activities across both campuses, so please check the location of your event in advance on the event webpage. A map of the campuses can be found here.
A network of pathways, cycle routes and shuttle buses (term time only) connect the sites which are less than a kilometre apart.
Most of our events are hosted here:
Art + Design Gallery (College Lane)
Weston Auditorium (de Havilland)
During term time, campus can get very busy and we strongly encourage the use of public transport and the Park + Ride to get to our events.
