The Science Museum

In the Embankment Galleries, the whole venue can hold 800 for a standing reception. Our Mezzanine level can seat up to 340 for a dinner on rounds or 192 on a long table, and our East and West Galleries can hold around 300 standing in each space. Originally a barrel-vaulted bargehouse linked directly to the River Thames, the Embankment Galleries are now our most modern and adaptable events space. Spread over the ground floor and Mezzanine level of the South Wing, this network of rooms host annual exhibitions but as of September 2017 - February 2018 it is also available for private events.

The Striking Lawrence Hall, with its unique art-deco design and high vaulted ceilings, is popular with organisers who want a London Venue with stunning architectural heritage. The Hall can be utilised for a variety of events including exhibitions, film sets and fashion shows, and can accommodate up to 1,500 for a standing reception, 900 for dinner, 750 for a dinner dance and 1,000 for a conference.

Blank Canvas at Frameless is the perfect space for meetings to presentations, conferences, networking events and product launches. The space is extremely versatile and lends itself to branded events. The walls are totally customisable - the Events Team can work with you to create a space that feels like an extension of your business or brand.

Fully accessible, guests can head straight onto the Weather Deck after the ceremony for the reception.
