Since our founding by Benedictine monks, hospitality has always been at the heart of Westminster Abbey. We have held royal weddings, state occasions, and every coronation since 1066.

Now you can hire an historic space for your next corporate event. Host a dinner, reception or summer party in one of our unique heritage spaces, set within the Abbey grounds - and offer your guests a private tour of the Abbey

College Garden - An impressive 900- year old garden, with beautiful views of the Abbey and Victoria Tower, part of the Palace of Westminster. This exclusive walled garden has a cosy and welcoming atmosphere all year round.

Believed to be the longest continually cultivated garden in England, College Garden is an idyllic space for a summer party reception, dinner, lunch or daytime business conference.

In June and July, we construct a stylish marquee with a decked porch area, making College Garden an idyllic venue for a relaxed reception, formal gala dinner or corporate conference and lunch.

From August to May, there is the exclusive opportunity to hire College Garden for one event a month. In this instance, you are welcome to construct a marquee structure to accommodate your event needs.
