The View is at the heart of The Royal College of Surgeons of England. Founded by the Royal Charter in 1800 it is the professional home of surgery in England and internationally. It is a friendly and inclusive space for the College’s 30,000 members to network and develop, focussing on connectivity between all specialities and all stages in surgical careers. We are now taking enquiries for meetings, conferences, receptions, corporate and private events and parties.

The Library is a graded listed part of the Royal College of Surgeons, dating back to the early 19th century. This historical space on the first floor features the Library and Erasmus Wilson Room. The Lumley Library, as well as an evening event space is also a fully functioning library. By the close of the 19th century, it was widely recognised that The Royal College of Surgeons possessed one of the finest medical science library collections in Europe.

This enchanting space offers a beautiful backdrop for private dinners, evening receptions and weddings.

    Attended a corporate event. It is a beautiful well maintained place and well suited for organising corporate events.

    The View is a spacious event space that has a secret...go through the doors and your on a beautiful terrace that overlooks the lush green Lincolns Inn Fields. Would love to go there at sunset, must be a very special place. Located in the Royal College of Surgeons building it really does stand out as my favourite event space.

    Good venue, after conference was well catered, but mid conference break ran out of refreshments.
