Church House Westminster brochureChurch House Westminster is a Grade II listed building in Dean's Yard that's hosted the UN Security Council's first meeting, wartime sittings of Parliament, and receptions for the Coronation of King Charles III. Architect Sir Herbert Baker's 30-foot glass dome anchors nineteen flexible spaces, from boardrooms for six to a 600-seat hall. In-house AV production, hybrid streaming, Searcys catering and an events team with decades of experience turn that history into modern corporate events, all run to a net zero standard.
