About Convocation House (New..)
100 Theatre
The fan-vaulted ceiling in Convocation House has watched centuries of Oxford debates, and now it's ready for your celebration. We've hosted everything from milestone birthdays to engagement parties in this 17th-century space, where dark wood paneling meets soaring medieval stonework in the most extraordinary way. Natural light pours through the arched windows at the far end, catching the intricate ceiling details that our medieval stonemasons spent years perfecting. The chapel-style gallery seating works brilliantly for up to 100 guests, creating an intimate atmosphere despite the grandeur overhead. We've found the acoustics particularly suit live music, with voices and instruments resonating beautifully off the historic walls. You'll find us right in Oxford's heart, surrounded by the Radcliffe Camera and Sheldonian Theatre, yet once inside, the space feels wonderfully private. The station sits barely a kilometer away, with parking options nearby for those driving in. Our approved caterers know exactly how to work within these historic walls, whether you're planning flowing canapés or a more formal setup. The adjacent Chancellor's Court offers a secluded entrance when you want that extra touch of privacy for your guests' arrival. Our events team handles the logistics, from coordinating with musicians who understand how sound travels in medieval spaces to ensuring the lighting shows off that spectacular ceiling as evening falls. Every party here becomes part of the Bodleian's continuing story. The same room that once hosted university debates now rings with birthday toasts and engagement announcements. We provide full accessibility throughout, and our dedicated coordinator ensures your celebration unfolds exactly as you've imagined it within these remarkable walls.
