Vintners' Hall, Livery Hall

Vintners’ Hall is one of the City of London’s most distinguished livery halls and the historic home of the Worshipful Company of Vintners, whose links to the wine trade stretch back centuries. First established on this site in the 15th century and rebuilt after the Great Fire of London, the present Grade I listed building is a showcase of carved wood panelling, grand chandeliers and elegant historic interiors. The heart of the venue is the Livery Hall, an impressive room suited to banquets of up to around 158 guests or receptions for up to 250. It is richly decorated, with a sense of weight and gravitas that few London venues can match. Smaller spaces, such as the Drawing Room and Boardroom, provide more intimate options and are well-suited for meetings, networking receptions, or smaller private dinners. A particular highlight is the Red Cellar beneath the hall, one of the oldest in the country and still used for storing wine. Vintners’ Hall excels at creating atmosphere. The combination of deep historic character, elegant architecture, and wine-related heritage gives events here a unique flavour. It is versatile, offering both large and small rooms, and its central City location makes it accessible by public transport. Service and hospitality are consistently praised, and the venue is visually stunning Vintners’ Hall is one of London’s most impressive venues. It is particularly well-suited to wine-themed events, livery occasions, and formal banquets. While not designed for large modern exhibitions or those on a tight budget, it delivers exceptional atmosphere and service in a uniquely historic setting.
