British Museum, The

Professional conference facilities amidst breathtaking surroundings

The British Museum houses spectacular conference facilities within the architectural splendour of the Queen Elizabeth II Great Court, allowing guests to experience the atmosphere of one of London's most significant cultural institutions.

Designed by renowned architect Lord Norman Foster, the contemporary Clore Education Centre comprises two technically-equipped tiered auditoria seating 142 and 323 delegates, providing ideal venues for presentations, conferences and launches.  The four seminar rooms service syndicate groups or smaller meetings from 5 people up to as many as 90.

Within the Centre are two elegant foyers, which make an ideal setting for receptions and exhibitions. Their pale stone walls and clean lines act as a blank canvas in which you can personalise your conference with branding and displays.
