Why choose Banqueting House for multi-day events
Banqueting House turns consecutive-day agendas into cultural experiences. Your delegates arrive to soaring Ionic columns and a Baroque masterpiece by Sir Peter Paul Rubens; they leave with a story they’ll keep retelling. The venue’s scale and service model are built for multi-day events- think conferences, leadership summits, AGMs, fashion showcases, and brand experiences that deserve time to breathe.
Key advantages:
- Two versatile spaces (Main Hall + Undercroft) for plenary, breakouts, and hospitality flow.
- Robust capacities: up to 400 theatre or 280 cabaret in the Main Hall; up to 350 standing in the Undercroft (drinks).
- Consecutive-day access with large-scale builds and late finishes (extensions to 01:00).
What multi-day looks like here
Consecutive-day access means smarter builds, better flow and stronger stories: plenary in the Main Hall, partner showcases in the Undercroft, and evenings that feel celebratory rather than rushed - right in the heart of London.
Time extensions available to 01:00, subject to schedule.
We beautifully host multi-day formats:
- Leadership Summits & AGMs
- Product and Fashion Showcases (with dressing, catwalk, or set build)
- Thought-Leadership Conferences (plenary + curated breakouts)
- Tastings, Sampling and Hospitality Programmes
- International Delegation Programmes (daytime content → evening receptions)
We had a fabulous evening at Banqueting House. The venue is simply stunning and the events team helped us to envisage what our event could be. They assisted in executing a very successful evening. We hope to return one day.
