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. Based on available pricing information, National Hall costs approximately £45,000 + VAT per day, though specific pricing for The Grand would need to be confirmed. Dry hire means the space comes empty - you must arrange and budget for all furniture, production, A/V equipment, and staging separately.
What are the capacity limits and space specifications for different halls?
The Grand hall accommodates up to 7,000 people and is described as providing plenty of space for staging and plenary setups. West Hall Level One offers 3,265 sqm of space with a minimum 75% usage requirement (2,500 sqm). National Hall is also available with different capacity options depending on your event requirements.
How much advance notice is required for bookings?
Olympia requires sufficient lead time for bookings, as they have declined enquiries that were "too short lead" for accommodation. It's recommended to book well in advance, particularly for large-scale events or during peak periods.
What additional costs should I budget for beyond the venue hire?
For dry hire spaces, you must budget for furniture, production equipment, A/V systems, staging, security, stewarding, exhibition booth building, graphics, power supply to exhibition areas, rigging, and drapes. These are all separate costs not included in the base venue hire fee.
Are there restrictions on event types or timing?
Olympia accommodates various event types including conferences, exhibitions, concerts, fashion shows, and cultural performances. Specific timing restrictions and availability vary by date and hall, so early enquiry is essential to secure your preferred dates.
What catering options are available?
Olympia can provide catering services with bespoke menu options available. They can accommodate various catering requirements from breakfast and coffee breaks to buffet lunches and networking receptions, though specific pricing would be quoted separately based on your requirements.
What A/V and production capabilities does the venue offer?
Olympia can provide A/V services including screens, projectors, PA systems, microphones, lighting, and staging. For dry hire spaces, these are additional costs. They can also accommodate complex production requirements including LED walls, IMAG cameras, and live streaming capabilities.
What is the booking and payment process?
Initial enquiries are reviewed by the Olympia Commercial Team who will respond with availability and pricing. The venue requires detailed event specifications including dates, capacity, setup requirements, and budget to provide accurate quotes. Payment terms and booking procedures are confirmed during the quotation process.
