Southbank Centre is a unique arts venue offering three auditoria and a variety of smaller spaces for commercial event hire.

Southbank Centre presents diverse programme covering a range of music, performance and visual arts. Lying at the heart of the South Bank arts quarter, the complex includes the world-famous Royal Festival Hall, Queen Elizabeth Hall and Purcell Room and Hayward Gallery.

Our venues can accommodate between 20 - 2,500 guests. Our auditoria regularly host meetings, conferences and AGMs, and our rooftop pavilions are undiscovered gems. Perfect for meetings, dinners and parties - these spaces will give your event the wow-factor and make them utterly memorable.

Perfect for dinners, parties and corporate receptions, these spaces have stunning views across London. Complete with enviable transport links, excellent production and AV facilities and dedicated event managers, Southbank Centre is a unique venue for any occasion.

After an extensive refurbishment programme, the Queen Elizabeth Hall will reopen in Spring 2018, with bookings now being taken. Complete with enhanced acoustics and refurbished seats, plus upgraded backstage facilities, the new and improved Queen Elizabeth Hall is an inviting space for visitors and artists alike. The enlarged foyer has been opened up to provide stunning views and an abundance of natural light and can be used for registration, catering, receptions and exhibitions.

    A evening for lover rock fans, hosted by the brilliant Dennis Bovell - this guy has an amazing catalogue of music. The queens and king of lover rock, Janet Kay, Carol Thompson & Victor Romero thrilled the crowd. Amazing!!!

    Went to see Tubular Bells. The 'Hall' itself was spacious and obviously clean etc. Not so crowded as they worked a good 'shift pattern' for entry (depending what area you were seated gave you your time for entry into the building). Polite staff to help you with all your enquiries/problems. Good clean toilets and refreshments on all levels. An enjoyable afternoon. Thank you.

    Was invited her for Graduation ceremony. Extremely well organised and great to be part of many people who have graduated at a difficult time. Many respectable people here and very many people are happy. Staff at this place are very helpful making visitors life a lot easier. Overall a great time with no issues whatsoever.

    Over the last few decades the riverside development was far more exciting urban spaceflight. Understandably, we started getting more open air spaces, outside tables, gardens. Perhaps the south Bank will be even more transformed in just a few years. Note the informal skateboard park, and skating as an Olympic sport.
