The largest internal space within London’s neo-classical riverside venue, at the heart of the capital, will become available for over half of the year. Somerset House will provide opportunities for commercial events and private hire in the historic Embankment Galleries.
Business development manager Luci Sorrell said…
“This is ground-breaking news for brands and creative agencies looking to host multi-day experiences and spectacular events. We receive so many enquiries for large numbers which, ordinarily, we can fulfil only at specific times of the year. Now we have a variety of options throughout 2023.”
With the ability to host up to 1,000 guests for a reception on all three floors, the galleries have been a popular choice for post-premiere after parties and dinners for up to 340.
In addition to evening events, the impressive spaces at Somerset House have been used for large-scale product launches. For example, fashion shows, award ceremonies and conferences. It will also be a prime location for Christmas parties.
Luci Sorrell went on to say…
“Clients can also enhance their experience with access to our cultural programme during this time, such as Black Venus which addresses the historical representation and shifting legacy of Black women in visual culture, and The Missing Thread which explores the story of Black British fashion, looking at how the influences of the 20th and 21st Centuries have had on design and its contribution to Britain’s rich design history.”
Availability in the Embankment Galleries is from: late March to early May and late July to the end of December 2023.
