About British Film Institute Southbank
Four screens, endless possibilities. Here at BFI Southbank, we've been bringing people together in the dark for decades—but these days, our auditoria light up for much more than films. Picture your next product launch on the same screen where cinema history was made, or your team gathered in plush seats usually reserved for film buffs. From our intimate 38-seat screening room to the 450-capacity main auditorium, we scale to match your ambitions. The projection quality? Cinema-grade, naturally. The sound system? It'll make your quarterly results sound Oscar-worthy. But it's not all about the tech—our riverside restaurant and bar create natural networking spaces where conversations flow as smoothly as the Thames outside. We've hosted everything from tech demos that needed pixel-perfect clarity to parties that spilled from screening rooms into our reception spaces. Full accessibility means everyone's included, while our location by Waterloo Bridge puts you at the crossing point of culture and commerce. Your event deserves more than another hotel conference room. Book with us and give your guests a venue they'll actually remember—where your message shares the spotlight with a century of cinema heritage.
