Derry Theatre Trust is a charitable company that was established in 1996. The company promotes the arts, culture, heritage, and science for the benefit of the public by the establishment and maintenance of the Millennium Forum. The Millennium Forum is a theatre, conference centre and arts centre located at the heart of Derry-Londonderry in Northern Ireland.

In 1996, Derry Theatre Trust was given £3,000,000.00 for a project titled Capital Campaign. With this funding the organisation was to assemble the funding for a purpose-built theatre for Derry by means of a lead gift. The gift is subject to Derry Theatre Trust raising matching funds of £9,000,000 and also obtaining charitable status by the Inland Revenue.
