Frequently asked questions
What is the pricing for The Grand hall and what does dry hire include?
The Grand hall is available as a dry hire space with capacity for up to 7,000 people. As a dry hire venue, you'll need to arrange and budget for all furniture, production, A/V equipment, and staging separately. Specific pricing was not disclosed in available communications, but enquiries suggest budgets significantly higher than £3,000 would be required for this premium space.
What are the lead time requirements for booking events at Olympia?
Olympia requires sufficient lead time for event bookings, with very short-notice enquiries being declined. Events requested with minimal advance notice (same-day or next-day requests) cannot be accommodated due to operational requirements.
What is the pricing for the National Hall and when is it available?
The National Hall is available for approximately £45,000 + VAT per day. Availability varies by date, with some popular dates like December 2nd already booked. November dates may be available as alternatives when preferred dates are unavailable.
What is the pricing structure for West Hall Level One?
West Hall Level One is priced at £45,870 + VAT for a typical event package. This includes build day (Tuesday 8:00-22:00), live event day (Wednesday 8:00-18:00 or 1 hour after show close), and breakdown (Wednesday show close until 22:00). The space offers 3,265sqm with a minimum 75% usage commitment (2,500sqm).
What additional costs should I budget for beyond the venue hire fee?
Beyond venue hire, you should budget for additional security/stewarding, A/V/production equipment, exhibition booth building and graphics, catering, power supply to exhibition areas, rigging, and draping. These costs vary significantly depending on your specific event requirements and are typically arranged through approved suppliers.
What catering options are available and how does it work?
Catering is available but pricing is determined based on specific menu selections and requirements. Olympia can provide bespoke catering offers once menu preferences are confirmed. Some events operate as self-catering where attendees purchase their own food and beverage.
What A/V and production services are available?
A/V services are available but pricing and specifications are determined based on individual event requirements. Olympia works with preferred suppliers to provide sound systems, lighting, screens, microphones, and other production equipment. Specific A/V packages are quoted separately from venue hire.
When will the new ICC conference facilities be available for booking?
The new state-of-the-art ICC (International Convention Centre) at Olympia will open in 2026 as part of the £1.3bn regeneration project. The ICC will feature an 830-seat auditorium, 7 breakout rooms, boardroom, business lounge, and approximately 3,000sqm of flexible space with its own entrance on Hammersmith Road.
What are the capacity limits for different event types at Olympia?
Capacity varies significantly by space and event type. The Grand hall accommodates up to 7,000 people, while other configurations support smaller events from hundreds to several thousand attendees. West Hall Level One offers 3,265sqm of flexible space that can be configured for various capacities depending on layout requirements.
How do I contact Olympia for event enquiries and what information should I provide?
Contact Olympia Events at events.olympia.london or call 0207 598 2786. When enquiring, provide your event date, expected attendance, space requirements, budget range, and any specific technical needs. The team will review your requirements and respond with availability and pricing information.
