Search Large Capacity London Venues

In order to list the best London venues by capacity on this page, we have sorted the venue capacity by standing capacity.

Event & Venue Capacity Calculator

Before searching for London venues by capacity here on Venues.London, it is important to confirm the required capacity for your event. It is important to keep in mind that if you require a 200 capacity venue or a 500 capacity venue then it is not always as simple as searching for venues of this size. Consider all of the equipment that you require and ay other layout requirements that will eat into the venue space. If you are planning an awards dinner for 300 guests and require a separate space for a reception before the meal, then you will need a venue with a space that can comfortably hold 300 guests standing and another space that can hold 300 guests seated with space for a stage. Our friends at Cvent have put together a useful guide about finding the right size capacity for your event with their event capacity calculator guide here. However, a good rule of thumb that is used by our team at Venues.London is to search for venues with a capacity that is 10% bigger than your maximum number of guests (which can be increased depending on the amount of production and other space eating activities that you have planned). Keep in mind your visitor dropout rate, which if you do not have any data about then try and gather this information for next time. Good luck with your venue search and if you need some help finding a large capacity venue for your event then use the enquiry form on this page to send your event brief to our team, who will be happy to help!
