About Venue

Located in the heart of the City of London, Haberdashers’ Hall is one of the capital’s most distinctive livery halls, combining rich heritage architecture with contemporary event facilities and exceptional hospitality. Hidden behind a traditional red-brick façade near Smithfield and St Paul’s, the venue offers an elegant and highly versatile setting for conferences, corporate events, private dining, receptions and weddings within one of London’s most historic districts.

Originally established as the home of the Worshipful Company of Haberdashers, the current Hall blends classical interiors, landscaped courtyard spaces and modern event infrastructure, creating a venue that feels both prestigious and welcoming. The combination of historic character and practical event functionality has made Haberdashers’ Hall a longstanding favourite for high-end corporate entertaining and private events alike.

Positioned within easy reach of Farringdon, St Paul’s and Barbican stations, the venue benefits from excellent transport links whilst offering guests a more secluded and private setting than many traditional City venues.

Event Spaces

The Livery Hall

At the centre of the venue is the impressive Livery Hall, a grand event space characterised by high ceilings, elegant chandeliers, oak panelling and large windows overlooking the courtyard gardens. The room is ideally suited to conferences, awards dinners, receptions, presentations and formal dining events, offering a sophisticated backdrop for both corporate and private occasions.

The Courtyard

One of Haberdashers’ Hall’s most distinctive features is its beautiful private courtyard garden, providing a rare outdoor event space within the City of London. Perfect for summer receptions, networking events, drinks receptions and arrival experiences, the courtyard creates a unique sense of space and exclusivity rarely found in central London venues.

Committee & Private Dining Rooms

Supporting the main event spaces are a collection of smaller meeting and private dining rooms suitable for board meetings, breakout sessions, workshops and intimate dining experiences. These flexible spaces allow organisers to accommodate multiple event formats within a single venue footprint.

Conferences & Corporate Events

Haberdashers’ Hall is particularly well suited to corporate hospitality, conferences, networking events and professional gatherings. The venue combines heritage surroundings with modern AV capabilities and experienced on-site support, ensuring events feel polished whilst maintaining operational flexibility.

Facilities and Services

The venue offers integrated AV facilities, flexible room layouts, in-house catering and dedicated event management support. The combination of heritage architecture and modern infrastructure allows organisers to deliver contemporary events within an elegant and characterful setting.

Its central City location, private courtyard and highly adaptable event spaces make Haberdashers’ Hall particularly attractive for organisations seeking a premium London venue with genuine identity and atmosphere.

Location and Access

Located on West Smithfield in the heart of the City of London, Haberdashers' Hall enjoys a prestigious position close to St Paul's Cathedral and Smithfield Market, offering a peaceful courtyard setting within one of London's busiest business districts. The venue benefits from excellent transport connections via Farringdon, Barbican and St Paul's stations, providing easy access to the Underground, Elizabeth line and National Rail services across London and beyond. The building offers step-free access throughout, with lifts serving all levels and accessible event spaces, while dedicated event loading arrangements can be accommodated for suppliers and production teams by prior arrangement.
