Our stunning 18th century Crypt and Gallery combined can hold up to 500 guests standing, or 200 seated.

Our in-house catering team can deliver exquisite fine dining packages or spectacular catering for larger numbers, all within a range of costs to suit your budget, and we can source entertainment for your event should you need us to.

By holding your event with us at St Martin’s, you will be helping us to continue our work with communities and the homeless in London.

The Gallery at St Martin-in-the-Fields offers the same beautiful architecture as the main Crypt and is perfect for intimate events, accommodating up to 150 guests standing. This versatile space can be used on its own or in conjunction with the Crypt, depending on your event needs.

With access to private toilet facilities, the Gallery is ideal for receptions, seated dinners, or more formal setups like boardroom meetings, theatre-style presentations, or cabaret events. One unique feature is the hidden corridor filled with fascinating historical artefacts, giving your guests an added element of discovery.

As with the Crypt, full catering and bar services are available to ensure a seamless and memorable event.

St Martin-in-the-Fields is one of London’s most beautiful and culturally rich churches, sitting right on the edge of Trafalgar Square. From the outside, the sculpture of the baby Jesus immediately draws your attention. It is absolutely breathtaking in its simplicity and emotion, offering a quiet moment of reflection in one of the busiest parts of the city. The church itself is stunning inside. Designed by James Gibbs and completed in 1726, it is considered a masterpiece of English Neoclassical architecture. The interior feels light, elegant, and peaceful, a real contrast to the noise outside. One of its standout features is the acoustics, which are exceptional. I have attended a concert here before, and the sound quality is truly remarkable, warm, clear, and immersive. It is no surprise that the church is world-famous for its classical and choral music performances. Below the church, the crypt adds another fascinating dimension. What were once catacombs have been thoughtfully converted into a café and social space. It is a unique setting where you can sit beneath the church, enjoy a meal or coffee, and sometimes even listen to live music or singing performances. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, and it feels like an integral part of the church rather than a commercial add-on. St Martin-in-the-Fields has long been known not only for its music but also for its commitment to social outreach and community support, which gives the place a strong sense of purpose beyond tourism.

It was our first time attending a Candlelight concert, and it was a wonderful experience. It was very kid-friendly, and both my daughter and son enjoyed it a lot. The performers were excellent, and the atmosphere was truly special.

St Martin-in-the-Fields was the ideal central London venue for our event.
