The brick-vaulted ceilings of The Forum create an immediate impression, their curves catching the ambient lighting we've carefully positioned throughout this characterful space. We've watched countless events unfold here, from corporate celebrations that start formal and end with dancing, to birthday parties where guests can't stop photographing those exposed brick walls. The Forum comfortably hosts 150 guests for standing receptions, though we often see it set for 80 seated dinners where the architectural details become part of the conversation. Natural light pours through our large windows during daytime events, completely transforming the atmosphere from the evening ambiance created by our lighting system. We've arranged the space with contemporary high tables that work brilliantly for cocktail hours, and our furniture can be reconfigured for theatre-style presentations, U-shaped meetings, or cabaret layouts depending on what you're planning. Our in-house catering team serves directly from the main kitchen, and we provide all the technical support you'll need, from Wi-Fi throughout to projection equipment when required. The Forum connects beautifully with our Old Crypt for those planning multi-space events, perhaps drinks here before dinner downstairs. We've hosted everything from 40th birthday parties to product launches, and the acoustics work particularly well for live music or DJ sets when celebrations really get going. The convenience factor always surprises first-time visitors, with Waterloo Station literally two minutes from our door, making arrival simple whether guests travel by train, tube, or bus. South Bank's restaurants and riverside walks provide plenty of pre or post-event options too. Our commitment to sustainability runs through everything, from the solar panels above to our developing heat pump system, as we work toward net-zero carbon emissions by 2030. The Forum offers that rare combination of historic character and modern functionality for your next celebration.
