The CBSO Centre
Some of the tutorials on Sunday are held in the CBSO centre. It's a short few minutes walk from the Conservatoire, and if you're going to the Sunday morning tutorial, you are welcome to go there first and register at lunchtime. Indeed, if you are in the ETAP or Premier Inn, it's recommended.
