8 Northumberland Avenue London Corporate Functions & Events

Moments from Trafalgar Square, 8 Northumberland Avenue is one of London’s most central event venues. This Grade II listed building is classic Victorian architecture at its best, and impresses everyone who visits. 

The Ballroom is a great option for large capacity events with hundreds of guests and has been described by English Heritage as ‘the grandest example of a Victorian ballroom in existence’, thanks to its high ornate ceiling, soaring columns and opulent detailing. 

8 Northumberland Avenue has a strong partnership with Blue Hut Productions, production specialists who can create bespoke settings for large conferences, presentations, and meetings. Intelligent LED lighting, 3D holographic projection, and Virtual Reality can be incorporated into your event for a unique experience — whether a large function in the Ballroom or the Old Billiard Room, or a seminar or private dinner in one of the dedicated meeting rooms.

Event management and catering specialists AlchemyLive will ensure that whatever your event, you’ll be in good hands. They have decades of experience and an impeccable attention to detail that will give your next event the edge.
