About Bakala Auditorium
202 Theatre
Two hundred and two theatre-style seats rise in perfect tiers, each positioned to give your delegates an unobstructed view of the stage. We've designed our Bakala Auditorium to create that rare combination of intimacy and impact, where every presentation feels both personal and powerful. The space wraps you in focused darkness, with subtle linear lighting that guides attention naturally towards the 4.7m x 2.65m screen. Our surround sound PA system means whether you're hosting a film screening, conference keynote, or panel discussion, every word carries clearly to the back row. The acoustics particularly shine during Q&A sessions, where the tiered seating encourages natural dialogue between speakers and audience. Our technical team regularly supports everything from TED-style talks to product reveals, working with you beforehand to ensure smooth transitions and professional delivery. The spacious stage accommodates panel setups comfortably, while the minimalist interior keeps distractions at bay, letting your content take centre stage. You'll find us on Kensington High Street, with Holland Park just moments away. Several tube stations sit within walking distance, making arrival straightforward for delegates coming from across London. The auditorium forms part of our Grade II* listed building, where that distinctive hyperbolic paraboloid roof has become a neighbourhood landmark. Between sessions, your guests can explore our current exhibitions or gather in the adjacent spaces for networking. Our venue's catering team, Restaurant Associates, brings refreshments directly to the designated break areas, keeping your schedule running smoothly. They work with locally sourced ingredients and offer extensive plant-forward options to suit diverse dietary requirements. Every booking supports our charitable mission to champion contemporary design, adding purpose to your event while providing your delegates with an inspiring professional environment.
