Kensington Palace

Kensington Palace, still home to members of British royalty, is an iconic and historic setting for special events. With timeless elegance and storied past to charm and delight your guests, the Palace is available for a limited number of event each year making it a unique opportunity to hold fabulous garden parties, sumptuous weddings, amazing dinners or sensational awards ceremonies.

The State Apartments are a succession of opulent, palatial rooms consisting of four beautiful spaces for extraordinary events.

Following a long period of restoration, The Orangery at Kensington Palace takes centre stage once again as one of London’s most sought-after events venues. Based within the gardens, the Orangery boasts a rich history dating back to 1704, when it was built by Nicholas Hawksmoor – a leading figure of English Baroque style architecture. Initially commissioned by Queen Anne as an elaborate greenhouse for her orange trees, this building has also been used as a party venue since her reign, when it became a ‘summer supper house’ and a place for royal entertainment. This tradition continues to present day.

GKN Aerospace

Since 2018, Venues All Areas & The Events Architect have organised our events, each for between 300 and 500 staff. Quite simply, they have all been a phenomenal success. Our Summer Party now runs over three days, involving everything from marquees, refined catering, smart sleeping tents, bands, and a myriad of other activities (even ice cream vans!). Our Christmas Party is traditional black tie, which they somehow also make special and out of the ordinary. They challenge themselves to go above and beyond, and they SUCCEED, whilst keeping within the all-important budget!

Group Events Manager HSBC

Victoria at The Events Architect took all the stress out of event planning for one of the biggest events in the Officers Mess calendar. The decorations and entertainment were phenomenal, funny and daring and tied in perfectly with our theme and audience. Having already got the venue, Victoria was able to craft a vision that fit the space perfectly and she was also extremely adaptable to short notice requests. It was a fantastic party and I could not recommend her enough.
