New spaces coming soon

To celebrate our 200th birthday, we’re launching some new event spaces

It’s 2024, our 200th birthday year, and to celebrate we're thrilled to reveal new spaces that will transform your event experiences at the Gallery. Fresh and exciting possibilities for your events lie ahead, with a revamped main entrance, a brand-new Supporters' House, new intimate spaces for smaller events, and a comprehensive redesign of our daytime event spaces, all scheduled for completion by 2025.

Supporters' House

We are excited to introduce the Supporters’ House, a dedicated space for our valued Members to relax, socialise, and deepen their connection with the Gallery. Outside public opening hours, this space will be available for private hire, perfect for intimate gatherings, special occasions, and corporate entertaining for up to 100 people.

Conveniently located with private access from Trafalgar Square, and featuring its own restaurant, bar, private dining room, lounge, and event space, the new Supporters’ House offers an intimate private experience.

New daytime event space

Conveniently located on the first floor and with a capacity of up to 60 (TBC) guests, this new versatile space will cater for a wide range of events, from team activities and private business lunches, to full-day board meetings.

It offers AV facilities, including a projector, screen, and a brand-new PA system, allowing you to create memorable moments, and fostering collaboration and productivity, in an environment designed to inspire.

Lecture Theatre

Our popular Lecture Theatre is returning with a fresh aesthetic. It offers generous capacity for up to 322 guests in theatre-style seating, with a fully accessible main stage and theatre, ensuring all guests can use this space in comfort. With state-of-the-art AV facilities and skilled technicians on hand for a seamless event, this space is perfect for presentations, conferences, film screenings, award ceremonies, product launches, and more. 

Lecture Theatre foyer

Outside the Lecture Theatre, a versatile foyer offers the ideal setting for refreshment breaks, light lunches, and networking receptions.
