The Large Committee Room is the largest of the three interconnecting rooms on the first floor. High ceilings and large windows along its full length give the room plenty of natural daylight and make this one of the lightest and brightest spaces at the Town Hall.

With distinctive period features, Edwardian fireplaces and an elegant buttressed ceiling, it is ideal for private parties, networking drinks, receptions and meetings.

Frequently asked questions

The venue is completely unavailable from late June through July, August, and September due to large rehearsals that occupy the entire venue. Additionally, from 24th November to 17th December, the venue exclusively hosts KIN London's Christmas Social and cannot accommodate other bookings during this period.

Due to the building's listed status and cultural programme nature, club nights and sporting events are not permitted. The venue operates a fully curated cultural programme, meaning all shows must be developed in consultation with their Cultural Programme team.

No agreement exists until a contract and full terms & conditions are signed by both parties and all hire fees are paid in full. The venue reserves the right to vary or cancel hires without liability, and any enquiry or discussion should never be assumed as confirmation.

The Assembly Hall can accommodate up to 500 people with Matrix seats in theatre style, plus an additional 250 seats available in the balcony. For events requiring 650-700 people in theatre style, the space can be configured accordingly.

The venue provides folding chairs and trestle tables on-site. For larger theatre-style events, up to 500 Matrix seats can be installed in the Assembly Hall with an additional 250 seats in the balcony. You can also source external furniture and décor from outside suppliers.

The venue operates primarily on a dry hire basis, allowing you to source external caterers of your choice. They have featured catering suppliers who have previously worked at the venue, and can provide an in-house bar service. There are no permanent kitchens on-site, but the Old Servery adjoining the Assembly Hall can be used by caterers to set up equipment.

The venue can provide full production in-house including audio, video, and lighting equipment. For the Council Chamber, they offer speakers, projectors, and monitors. Bespoke production quotes are available based on specific requirements.

It is the hirer's responsibility to set up and clear down the space unless specifically discussed with the venue in advance. If the venue assists with setup, this time will be factored into the hire period.

Dates can be held as first option (provisional hold), second option (if another event already has provisional hold), or third option (if both first and second options exist). The venue will contact you if higher priority bookings fall through.

The venue offers eight unique spaces including the Assembly Hall, Council Chamber, Mayor's Parlour, and three interconnecting Committee Rooms on the first floor. The Large Committee Room has internal access to Medium and Small Committee Rooms, making them suitable for events requiring multiple connected spaces.
