The Great Hall combines Victorian grandeur with everything you need for a spectacular celebration. Those tall arched windows flood the space with natural light during daytime events, while our original globe chandeliers create an intimate atmosphere come evening. We've kept the intricate ceiling moldings and architectural details that make this Grade II listed building so special, adding a large projection screen and full AV setup for presentations or photo slideshows during your event. With space for 400 standing guests or 280 in theatre-style seating, the hall adapts beautifully to different party formats. Corporate celebrations, gala dinners, awards ceremonies, we've seen the soft green and white walls provide an elegant backdrop for them all. The high ceilings give even large gatherings room to breathe, while our audio system ensures speeches and music reach every corner without overwhelming conversation. Our catering team works from the building, preparing everything from cocktail canapés to three-course dinners. They're particularly good at accommodating dietary requirements, something our regular clients often mention. The bar service runs smoothly even during busy receptions, and we hold the appropriate licenses for evening events. You'll find us just minutes from Stratford and Maryland stations, with Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park practically next door. Your guests can easily reach us via multiple bus routes, and there's something rather special about hosting an event in this historic university building rather than a standard function room. When weather permits, the campus grounds offer lovely spots for drinks or photos. Recent refurbishments mean the practical elements work as well as the beautiful ones. Free Wi-Fi throughout, proper heating and cooling, accessible facilities, everything functions properly. Our events team handles the logistics, from initial setup through to the final clear-down, letting you focus on your guests and celebration.
