London's best museums for hire

When they’re not open to locals and tourists looking to fill a few hours, museums in London act as the stage for every kind of event you can think of. From fashion shows and elaborate private dinner parties through to conferences and product launches, because they often have a multitude of spaces, museums offer up the ideal flexible hosting site. With knowledgeable in-house teams, event planning is typically straightforward too. The experienced event planners at each museum come with their own armoury of contacts in most cases and can help you arrange everything from caterers through to florists.

If you’re looking for immediate wow-factor you might want to look at museums in London with a large capacity – somewhere with a huge entrance hall, for instance. For smaller, more intimate gatherings you can often hire rooms with a specific theme or even a dedicated gallery space that allows you the privilege of entertaining surrounded by world-class art.

Whether you’re looking to show your team how much you appreciate them this Christmas or want to put on a client summer party to remember, the invitation pull of a globally recognisable institution is sure to help ensure a full house come the big day (or night).
