The Design Museum

Events at The Design Museum

The Design Museum, located on Kensington High Street with beautiful views over Holland Park, is the world’s leading museum devoted to contemporary design and an inspiring setting for corporate and private events. Set within an iconic Grade II* listed building, remodelled by renowned architect John Pawson, the museum offers a collection of distinctive and versatile spaces for conferences, product launches, brand activations, exhibitions, dinners, drinks receptions and award ceremonies. The museum’s key event spaces offer flexibility for events of varying styles and scales. The contemporary Helene and Johannes Huth Gallery provides a versatile blank canvas for conferences, product launches, exhibitions, receptions and dinners, with opportunities for bespoke branding and production. At the heart of the museum, the dramatic triple-height Atrium provides an impressive backdrop for receptions, dinners and large-scale events, while the Bakala Auditorium offers a dedicated 202-seat theatre with state-of-the-art AV facilities for conferences, screenings, presentations and award ceremonies. The spaces can also be used in combination, allowing events to flow seamlessly between presentations, networking and hospitality. For clients looking to create an experience beyond the event itself, venue hire can also be combined with exclusive exhibition access, guided tours and bespoke tour packages, providing guests with a distinctive experience that could only take place at the Design Museum. As a registered charity, every event held at the Design Museum also contributes to its vision of helping everyone understand the transformative potential of design.
