About Venue
The Honourable Society of Lincoln's Inn is a stunning estate nestled in the heart of central London, renowned not only for its historic grandeur but also for its beautiful private grounds. This remarkable property offers a unique blend of historic architecture and elegant outdoor spaces, alongside modern conference spaces and amenities. With 19 event spaces on offer, Lincoln's Inn is the perfect place for any occasion.
*Please note that we are fully booked for Christmas 2026. If you would like to enquire about early bird pricing for Christmas 2027, please get in touch.
The Old Hall, is a fine example of Tudor architecture. The hall dates back to 1490, and we have been holding events there ever since! A truly historic find, the notable features include a gorgeous wooden screen at the south end, designed by Inigo Jones, and William Hogarth’s painting of “Paul before Felix” on the North wall, making this the perfect destination for art and history lovers alike.
The Old Hall can accommodate seated dinners of up to 120, or standing receptions for 200. Hire of the Old Hall also includes the Crypt beneath the Old Hall, which was for centuries used for the storage of food and wine. The brick groin vaulting has since been restored to its former glory, and we use the space as a reception area.
During the summer we can hold reception drinks outside of this space on the accompanying Gatehouse Court Lawn, a private and beautiful courtyard, ideal for a reception ahead of a dinner.

Really beautiful hall and library, as well as recently restored chapel. The cafe is also nice.

As a wedding photographer, The Great Hall at Lincoln’s Inn is one of those venues that instantly takes your breath away. Tucked away in Holborn, it feels like you’ve stepped into a history right in the middle of London. The architecture is absolutely stunning high ceilings, huge windows, wood panelling, and so much historic detail in every direction. It gives your photos this grand, timeless feel without ever feeling cold or too formal. And that natural light streaming in during the day? A total dream to work with. Outside, the courtyard and gardens offer a quieter, more intimate space, perfect for portraits or relaxed moments away from the buzz. The team at Lincoln’s Inn are always great to work with really professional and helpful. It’s a venue that feels rich with story, and every time I shoot there, I walk away feeling inspired. With Love Doville Gail photography

Open House affords an opportunity to see a space where some of the finest figures have walked through the doors of the Honourable Society and leave their mark on this field. It's rather fascinating to see for example the library where book after book gives us an idea of just how in-depth the world of legal law and justice really is, and the many paintings themselves are a marvel to behold (do look out for the painting of a figure who resembles British actor, Hugh Bonneville). The chapel is compact but again, there is a rather stark beauty that permeates the place that allows for pause when you do come through here. As an Open House opportunity, the Honourable Society of Lincoln's Inn is a rare chance to see an important postmark of British legal law and history from its roots right up to the modern day.
