200 guests
For more than 150 years, the Science Museum has been educating and entertaining visitors and has occupied its current building since 1928. Just as the progress of science is constantly advancing and expanding, so the Science Museum has expanded, continually updating and adding ever more exciting and dynamic exhibitions and venues. Even now, there is a masterplan to create a system of new galleries opening in 2013 and beyond.
Originally constructed in 1890, the Smith Centre has been elegantly preserved to present four spaces of varying size that suit a wide variety of event purposes.
From small meeting rooms for up to 20 guests, to an ample-sized salon accommodating 200 guests for a canapé reception, the Smith Centre provides versatility throughout.
The Smith Centre is located on the ground floor of the Science Museum and benefits from a fully integrated AV system, enabling a seamless production experience that links to Illuminate.

August 2024This Museum is an absolute delight for both kids and adults. It's not just interesting but incredibly entertaining, offering a perfect blend of education and fun. Plan for a full day to truly explore everything it has to offer—not only to see the exhibits but, more importantly, to teach kids how things have evolved from the past to the present. A must-visit for anyone curious about the wonders of science and technology!

September 2024The Science Museum was amazing! I especially enjoyed the exhibits on spacecraft and the history of computers. Both sections were incredibly engaging and informative. A great visit for science enthusiasts!

September 2024Visited the Power Up exhibition, which was excellent. Had great fun playing on all the old consoles! It was very busy but there were enough consoles that you could pretty much always find something to play with. The venue was very clean and hand sanitiser was placed on every break area. Definitely worth a visit!

September 2024The Science Museum is a fantastic experience for me and my son. The interactive exhibits are both fun and educational, making complex scientific concepts easy to understand. From space exploration to cutting-edge technology, there's something for everyone. I especially loved the IMAX theater—watching documentaries on such a massive screen was truly awe-inspiring. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and there are plenty of hands-on activities for kids to enjoy. I highly recommend for kids, science enthusiasts, or anyone curious about the world around them!

August 2024The Science Museum London was an absolute blast! It's by far the best experience I've had in the UK so far. I was thoroughly entertained and learned so much. The museum is packed with incredible exhibits, but the top floor's plane gallery was a standout and my favourite. This place is a must-visit! The pizza at diner was below average.
