Frequently asked questions
What is the venue hire cost for The Grand Temple and what's included?
The Grand Temple costs £20,000 + VAT per day from 7am-11pm, with a late license available until 2am for £750 per hour. This includes security and cleaning for the live event, plus access to The Tower Doors, Cloakroom, The Vestibules, and The Long Room. Rig/de-rig days are available at 50% discount on venue hire.
What are the capacity limits for different event formats in The Grand Temple?
The Grand Temple accommodates 900 theatre-style with catering, 280 cabaret, 600 reception, or 450 seated dinner. With creative staging over the fixed seating, it can transform into a party space for up to 1,100 guests. The venue can accommodate a maximum of 1,300 guests for standing events across multiple rooms.
What are the access times and licensing restrictions?
Standard access is 7am-11pm, with late license available until 2am for an additional £750 per hour. The venue does not allow concerts due to licensing terms, though musical theatre productions may be considered. December availability is limited due to Christmas installations and programming.
What catering arrangements are required and who provides them?
The venue works exclusively with Moving Venue as their catering partner - you cannot bring external caterers. Moving Venue provides everything from elegant drinks receptions to full three-course dinners and can create tailored menus to complement your event format and requirements.
What audio-visual equipment is included and what needs to be hired separately?
The Grand Temple has no built-in AV equipment, so everything must be brought in externally. The venue has rigging points for weight up to 28 tonnes and can accommodate full production setups including staging, screens, lighting, and sound systems through their recommended suppliers.
What spaces are included when hiring The Grand Temple?
Hiring The Grand Temple includes access to The Tower Doors for exclusive red carpet entrance, the Grade II listed cloakroom, The Vestibules (which can be divided into three areas using decorative doors), and The Long Room. This creates a complete guest journey from arrival through to the main event space.
Are there restrictions on event types or content that can be hosted?
The venue does not allow concerts due to licensing restrictions, though musical theatre productions may be considered on a case-by-case basis. Events requiring over 1,300 guests cannot be accommodated, and the venue may decline events that don't meet their standards or venue requirements.
What is the booking process and when are dates unavailable?
December dates are largely unavailable due to Christmas programming and installations. Weekend availability in September-November includes specific Saturdays and Sundays, but weekday availability varies. The venue requires confirmation of event content, guest numbers, budget flexibility, and catering requirements before proceeding with bookings.
