Portadown is situated on the River Bann, in the north of County Armagh and is part of the Craigavon Borough Council area. The Portadown of today boasts one of the province's most thriving shopping centres. Although Portadown can trace its origins to the early 17th century, it was not until the Victorian era and the arrival of the railway that it became a major town.

Portadown is known as 'the hub of the North', due to it being a major railway junction in the past; where the Great Northern Railway's line diverged for Belfast, Dublin, Armagh and Derry.

The Portadown Campus is situated on the A3 Lurgan Road in the town, one of the main roads into the busy trading town. The campus concentrates on the science based subjects and Apprenticeship Training and has a working restaurant which is operated by the catering students of the College.
