The Venue & Timings

Durham Town Hall is a municipal building in the Market Place, Durham, England. It is a Grade II* listed building. Situated in the heart of the city, it offers a historic and centrally located setting for events.

The Durham Careers Fair runs for a total duration of 4 hours, starting at 10am and finishing at 2pm. We recommend arriving at the venue before 1pm in order to give you enough time to visit every stand.

Do I have to have a ticket to attend the event?

Getting a ticket has its benefits, as you’ll be the first to know about updates and reminders for the event. However, tickets are not required to be presented on the day. Please note that while having a ticket is helpful, it is not essential—attendees without tickets will still be able to gain access to the event.

How do I find out who is exhibiting?

Exhibitors are being added and updated all the time, so the best way to see who’s attending is to visit our jobs page and search within the event location — you’ll be able to see which companies are actively promoting their attendance. We also recommend keeping an eye on our social media for updates, and of course, the very best way to find out is by coming along on the day.

Is there anything I should bring with me on the day?

It is always a good idea to bring your CV to events for networking and job applications. Yet, maintaining a positive attitude and open-mindedness is crucial. Employers often prioritize these over experience, helping you make a lasting impression. A positive attitude keeps you motivated, focused, and makes the event more enjoyable and worthwhile.
