London is brimming with eclectic event spaces but if you're looking for somewhere truly special, how about a real life palace, in the heart of the capital, fit for royalty? Kensington Palace is one of the city's most iconic buildings, designed by renown architect Sir Christopher Wren, with history dating back to the 1600s.
Over the years it has been home to some of the world's most famous royals, from Queen Victoria to Princess Diana, and now, it can be the backdrop to your celebration too. Weddings, birthday parties, corporate events and more are all welcomed here, and the in-house events team will be happy to chat through the various spaces available to hire as well as your vision for them.
The largest indoor space is The King's Drawing Room which has capacity for 90 guests seated and 100 guests standing. With scarlet-hued walls, huge gold-framed paintings and soaring ceilings, it's an atmospheric space unlike anywhere you'll have thrown a party before. If you really want to take your event to the next level, you can also combine this space with The Orangery, which works especially well for late night dancing.
The Orangery is a stunning building, built in 1704 and situated within its own pristine, manicured gardens, like something out of a fairytale. Huge, arched windows flood the space with light while ornate period details and carved statues make it truly unique. After a generous refurbishment, this spring will be the first time The Orangery has been used in some years, making it even more exclusive and the perfect place to host up to 300 people.
And finally, there's also The Cupola Room, an incredible space with a decorated ceiling and low hanging chandeliers where up to 60 people can be seated for dinner, or 80 can enjoy a drinks reception.
