Royal Opera House

About the venue

"With its spectacular hospitality areas and the highest quality of food service, the Royal Opera House is one of London's premier venues for special events.

Situated at the heart of Covent Garden, it is an historic London landmark and the home of The Royal Opera and The Royal Ballet. Redeveloped in 1999, there are now 19 different spaces available for small meetings for 8 through to large receptions for 1000. The Vilar Floral Hall is the former Covent Garden flower market and is one of the focal points of the Royal Opera House. With its tall arched glass roof it is a dramatic and stylish venue for stellar events such as awards dinners and post premiere parties for up to 1000 people. The Linbury Studio Theatre is a versatile and modern space, ideal for conferences and product launches for up to 400 people. The tiered seating can be retracted to create a flat floor studio, or reconfigured for performance in an Arena setting. The opulent splendour of the Crush Room, with its high ceilings, gilt finishes and stunning crystal chandeliers, make it an elegant venue for any glamorous occasion for up to 220 guests. And if you are looking for something quirky or different, the Royal Opera House can offer a truly original event experience by transforming its ballet studios into reception and dinner venues. With access to a private terrace, your guests can enjoy spectacular views over Covent Garden and the London rooftops. Exclusive backstage tours of the Royal Opera House can be encompassed as part of your event, giving your guests an opportunity to glimpse behind the scenes of one of the busiest international opera houses in the world."
