FAQs about Top Prom Venues in London
When hiring out a venue, you will find three types of pricing:
- Hire fees - Some spaces charge per hour with the prices starting around £360 for cheap prom venues and reaching up to £1,000+. Others will charge by the session – expect to pay from £1,500 up to £10,000 and above.
- Prom packages - In many restaurants and venues specialising in large events, you can pay for prom party offers on a per person basis. Prices start from around £100 to £300 at exclusive prom venues, but you can find more affordable options if you're going for something simple!
- Minimum spend - That's right, you can hire a London prom venue for free! In this arrangement, popular at bars, clubs, and restaurants, you just need to make sure you spend enough money on food and drinks. The requirements can start as low as £500.
Always take some time to discuss the final details with the manager, and ask about individual offers, party packages, and discounts. Keep in mind that renting out some additional equipment, such as a PA system, decorations, etc. can incur some additional costs. (All data from Tagvenue.)
The whole city hides fabulous venues that are ideal for hosting proms! For an upscale prom experience, check out the charming and stylish venues in Mayfair, Knightsbridge and Westminster. If you’re looking for some modern settings, check venues in the City of London, Soho and Covent Garden. But it’s also possible to find hidden gems in the areas of Dalston, Notting Hill and Clerkenwell.
Usually, teenagers wear formal attire, such as fancy gowns, and well-tailored tuxedos. As it’s a meaningful occasion, everyone should make an effort to look their best and spend time preparing their outfit, hairstyle, and accessories. However, it also depends on the chosen theme and vision. Some proms will be organised in much more casual surroundings and the dress code will be less formal, so the attendees will have much more freedom in choosing what to wear.
The price for a prom ticket depends on the final cost of the prom organisation and should cover the costs associated with the venue rental, security, food and drinks, decorations, and any additional attractions. In London, the cost of a prom ticket usually ranges between £25 - £40.

What is Included in a Budget for a Prom Night in London?
Proms can get pricey in London, but smart planning keeps you on track. Here’s how to manage the costs without sacrificing the experience.
Venue Hire Costs:
- Central London venues come with higher price tags—check what’s included (AV, lighting, setup time)
- Ask about minimum spends vs flat hire fees
- Watch for hidden fees: corkage, cleaning, security, or overtime
Catering & Refreshments:
- Buffet and finger food = more budget-friendly than formal sit-down meals
- Ask if you can bring in your own caterers (some venues require in-house)
- Plan for dietary needs early—vegan, halal, gluten-free, etc.
Music & Entertainment:
- Hire a local DJ or band—or tap into student DJs to keep the vibe on point
- Add-ons like photo booths or interactive games can elevate the night, but prioritise based on budget
Decorations:
- Let the venue do the work—choose a place that already fits your theme
- DIY décor or student-led decoration teams help keep costs low
- Repurpose materials across spaces (e.g., centrepieces for photo corners)
Final Budget Tips:
- Book early – Peak dates in June and July get snapped up quickly
- Consider weekdays or off-peak seasons to save big
- Use budgeting tools or shared planning docs to track every cost
- Negotiate – especially when booking multiple services with one venue
