Frequently asked questions
What are the venue closure periods I need to be aware of when planning my event?
Lincoln's Inn is closed for the entire month of August and during Easter from 17th April at 15:00, reopening on 28th April. These closure periods affect all event bookings and cannot be accommodated during these times.
What are the capacity limits for different event spaces and what are the minimum guest requirements?
The Old Hall accommodates up to 120 guests for sit-down dinners or 200 for standing receptions. For conferences, the Ashworth Centre lecture theatre holds up to 130-158 guests, while the Great Hall can accommodate larger events. Meeting spaces require a minimum of 30 guests to book.
What are the standard operating hours and latest finish times for events?
Conference events must end by 16:00 with all guests departed by 16:30 or 17:30 depending on the space. Evening events in spaces like the Old Hall typically run until 22:30 with de-rig completed by 23:00, though some events can be extended with bar closing at 00:00 and guests departing by 00:30.
What are the room hire costs and minimum spend requirements?
Room hire varies significantly by space and timing. Examples include: Old Hall & Crypt for evening events at £2,750, Great Hall & Bench Rooms at £8,520 for evening hire, and Great Hall with lawn at £7,350 for daytime events (11:00-16:00). Most bookings also require minimum food & beverage spends ranging from £7,310 to £18,600 depending on the event.
What catering options are available and what are the restrictions on outside food?
Lincoln's Inn operates in-house catering only - no outside food is permitted. They offer day delegate rates starting from £91-£127.20 per person (minimum numbers apply), Christmas packages at £176 per person, and various dinner and reception packages. All catering must be arranged through their award-winning in-house team.
Are there specific day-of-week restrictions or preferred booking days?
Availability varies significantly by day of the week. For November bookings, they typically have Wednesdays and Fridays available but no Thursdays. The venue appears to have limited availability on certain days, and some weeks may be completely unavailable.
What additional mandatory costs should I budget for beyond room hire and catering?
Security services are mandatory for certain events at £480 (£400 + VAT). There may be additional small fees depending on your caterer's requirements for dry hire events. All prices are subject to VAT at 20%.
What types of events are not suitable for Lincoln's Inn?
Lincoln's Inn does not accommodate sixth form proms and has declined certain event types as 'not suitable for the venue.' The venue maintains high standards and may decline events that don't align with their historic and prestigious setting.
How far in advance do I need to book and what is the booking process?
The venue can offer tentative holds on dates while you make decisions. Autumn 2025 menu selections and pricing are confirmed later in the year, so early bookings may have menu details finalized closer to the event date. Contact their sales team directly to check availability and secure dates.
What setup and access times are available for event preparation?
Setup access varies by event type and timing. Evening events typically allow access from 16:00-17:30 for setup, while some events can access from as early as 08:00. De-rig times are strictly enforced, typically requiring completion by 23:00 for evening events.
