Welcome to Battersea Arts Centre, where history and grandeur combine to create an exceptional venue for your next event. Our Grand Hall Suite is renowned for hosting extraordinary gatherings, from elegant dinners and lively parties to dazzling galas and prestigious awards ceremonies. If you’re looking for a location that’s both spectacular and unique, you’ve come to the right place!

OUR GRAND HALL SUITE

Enter through our exclusive Town Hall Entrance and be greeted by the stunning Octagonal Hall. This Grade II listed space features the original domed stained-glass ceiling and mosaic from our days as the former Battersea Town Hall, providing an elegant setting for your welcome drinks and reception. 

Proceed to our Grand Hall for the main event, where you’ll be enveloped in the distinctive charm of a RIBA award-winning restoration. This breathtaking space, beautifully restored after a devastating fire in 2015, offers a dramatic backdrop for any occasion.
