The traditional Georgian architecture blends effortlessly with contemporary spaces, creating a unique and versatile backdrop for your next event. Boasting a 420-seat auditorium ideal for larger-scale conferences & presentations, the Royal Institution can also offer further spaces suitable for smaller forums, private dining, seminars, receptions and parties.

The Royal Institution is an independent charity dedicated to connecting people with science & innovation. All revenue generated from venue hire is donated back into our charity.

Working with our in-house catering supplier, Searcys, we have created a range of innovative and delicious menus to suit all occasions with a focus on providing modern, British & sustainable hospitality.

Located on the First Floor, the Speaker’s room is one of our heritage rooms bathed in natural light and adorned with antique décor. The Speaker's Room is a favourite for filming and serves as an excellent meeting space for small corporate away-days.
The room is equipped with hybrid conference technology and a small lobby space for catering.

    It's short, maybe 1 hour, but a really excellent place for those interested in the origins of modern scientific analysis techniques. Michael Faraday's work is here, among other major scientists. They also apparently do special lectures for children around the holiday season. Do not that they're generally closed on weekends.

    If you're keen on science, you'll love the exhibitions here. As a pharmacist, I found many captivating displays, like vintage slides and old microscopes. Best of all, entry is free, and there's a café inside.
