Combining the style and charm of The Grand Hall on a smaller scale, The National Hall can accommodate up to 5,000 guests. It has been the home to many bold, themed events, a variety of product launches and long-term home to many famous shows and exhibitions.

Events in The National Hall benefit from plenty of natural light from the arched roof and gable ends. The gallery floor gives impressive views across the ground floor below and gives your event a separate floor plan to create a special environment.

The National Hall can be directly connected to The Grand Hall creating one of London’s largest event spaces.

The space also has its own catering outlets, which offer a broad range of food and drink tailored to all tastes. All dishes on offer are expertly crafted using fresh, organic ingredients from our local supply chain.

A dedicated entrance is located on Hammersmith Road, approximately 100m from Kensington Olympia Station.
