About this space

Gray’s Inn Gardens, known as The Walks, are a rare five-acre private garden in the heart of Central London, offering a peaceful and historic setting for outdoor events. Laid out in 1608 by Sir Francis Bacon, whose statue overlooks South Square, the gardens provide a distinctive backdrop for summer parties, corporate events, family days, garden receptions, and wedding celebrations. As well as wedding reception, The Walks are now licensed for outdoor wedding ceremonies, allowing couples to exchange vows in a truly romantic location.

During the summer months, the gardens are enhanced by a contemporary marquee with air-cooling, dancefloor, bar, restrooms, and wooden decking, creating a versatile environment for receptions and large-scale celebrations in an elegant and exclusive outdoor setting.
