About Temporary Exhibition Spaces
300 Banquet
450 Standing / Reception
At the National Gallery, our Temporary Exhibition Spaces transform with each season's programme, creating fresh backdrops for unforgettable celebrations. Currently, guests sip champagne beneath banners announcing "Corot to Monet" or "Leonardo da Vinci", the exhibition themes becoming natural conversation starters as 450 attendees mingle across the generous floor plan. The architecture speaks through clean lines and smooth stone walls that frame whatever atmosphere you're creating. We've hosted everything from fashion launches where models glided past Impressionist banners, to milestone birthday parties where jazz quartets played as guests discovered which Old Master exhibition was running. For seated dinners, we configure the space for 300, with round tables dressed in linens that complement the current show's palette. Our events team works closely with Peyton Events to design menus that echo the exhibitions. During a recent Venetian Masters display, guests enjoyed cicchetti and Bellinis; when Japanese influences filled the walls, sushi stations appeared between the display cases. The adjustable lighting system lets us shift from bright networking energy to intimate candlelit ambience as your evening evolves. These spaces connect directly to our main galleries, allowing pre-dinner private views where your guests explore current exhibitions with just your group present. The loading access and built-in AV infrastructure handle everything from live bands to projection mapping against those neutral stone walls. Being right on Trafalgar Square with Charing Cross two minutes away means your guests arrive easily, whether coming from offices or hotels. The Temporary Exhibition Spaces offer something beyond typical venue hire: your celebration becomes part of the Gallery's living story, with world-class art providing both talking points and an elevated setting that guests remember long after the final toast.
