About

Located in the heart of London’s West End, Theatre Royal Drury Lane is one of the capital’s most iconic and historic theatres, offering a spectacular setting for large-scale events, performances and premium corporate occasions.

Known for its grandeur, scale and theatrical heritage, Theatre Royal Drury Lane is particularly well suited to award ceremonies, conferences, product launches and high-profile corporate events where impact and prestige are paramount.

This space is ideal for keynote presentations, performances and ceremonies, supported by additional areas including the Grand Saloon, Rotunda and private rooms for receptions, hospitality and VIP hosting.
