Hayes Lane

A football stadium reimagined as an events destination — Hayes Lane houses Bromley FC alongside multiple hireable spaces, an outdoor screen, and a 500-capacity bar and kitchen that operates as a genuine seven-days-a-week venue rather than a matchday afterthought. Free parking, a 1am licence, and a ten-minute walk from Bromley South station make it the South London and Kent events venue that central London alternatives can't replicate for accessibility.

Broomfields: The Bar and Kitchen

The centrepiece of Hayes Lane's events offering sits within the Glyn Beverly Stand. Broomfields holds 500 standing and 200 seated, with 25 big screens, in-house kitchen, and a contemporary sports bar atmosphere that's drawn a following well beyond football crowds. Handcrafted seasonal menus, sourdough pizzas, and event catering run through the venue's own chef team. Birthday parties, corporate functions, Christmas celebrations, and community events all use the space — the late licence, external DJ permissions, and scale making it versatile enough to handle everything from quiz nights to 500-person parties.

The Venue Suite and Ravens Lounge

Upstairs in the John Fiorini Stand, the recently refurbished Venue Suite overlooks the pitch — 120 seated, 150 theatre or buffet — with full AV making it suited to corporate presentations, awards dinners, and more formal events that benefit from the pitch-view setting. Ravens Lounge on the ground floor takes 60 seated or 150 standing as a sports bar with its own programme of themed party nights, live music, and DJs.

Bear Island Bar

The outdoor Bear Island Bar adds summer event capability with a 6-metre-wide screen and multiple HD screens — 250 capacity in a setting that makes live sport and outdoor celebrations work in combination. For summer corporate socials, watch parties, and casual team events, the outdoor screen is a genuine differentiator.

Community Club, Genuine Welcome

Bromley FC has been at Hayes Lane since 1938, and the community identity runs through the events programme. From charity partnerships and quiz nights to the annual awards evening and themed music nights, events here carry an institutional warmth that hired-for-the-night commercial venues struggle to match. Ample free parking — including coach and minibus spaces — handles groups arriving from across South East London and Kent, and Bromley South station connects to Central London in 20 minutes by train.
