About College Garden
240 Banquet
400 Theatre
1000 Standing / Reception
The monks who first planted herbs here 900 years ago would be amazed to see their garden hosting celebrations for up to 1,000 guests. College Garden holds the distinction of being England's longest continually cultivated garden, where ancient plane trees cast dappled shadows across manicured lawns and medieval walls frame your event with genuine history. We transform this remarkable space throughout the seasons. During June and July, our marquee rises from the lawn like a crystal pavilion, complete with decked porch and glass sides that maintain your connection to the surrounding beauty. This structure comfortably seats 240 for dinner or welcomes 400 for theatre-style presentations, while the full garden accommodates 1,000 guests for standing receptions. Outside summer months, we can arrange alternative marquee options to suit your requirements. Your guests will find themselves surrounded by centuries of horticultural tradition, from the herbaceous borders bursting with colour to the ancient mulberry trees that have witnessed countless seasons. The Victoria Tower rises above the garden walls, while glimpses of the Abbey's Gothic architecture remind everyone they're celebrating somewhere truly extraordinary. As daylight fades, subtle lighting illuminates the pathways and highlights the architectural features, creating an enchanted atmosphere. Our approved caterers understand how to work within this historic setting, delivering everything from canapés on the lawn to formal banquets beneath the marquee. The alcohol licence extends until midnight, and we provide professional sound and music equipment suited to outdoor acoustics. St. James's Park Station sits just moments away, making arrival simple for all your guests. Whether you're planning a summer garden party, corporate conference, or gala dinner under the stars, College Garden offers that rare combination of central London accessibility and peaceful seclusion behind ancient walls.
