About this space

The Events Space is a private event room in the Old Vic Theatre defined by its warm exposed timber structure and abundant natural light.

Design: The room has exposed timber ceiling beams, wide-plank oak flooring and terracotta-toned walls arranged in a long, uncluttered rectangular plan. Full-height windows occupy one side and admit generous daylight.

Features: The room includes a PA system and speakers and permits own music and external DJs subject to the venue's noise restrictions. The space provides venue Wi‑Fi, a step-free guest entrance, wheelchair access and accessible toilets.

Ideal for: This room suits creative teams and cultural groups seeking a relaxed, social seated dinner or an informal standing reception.

What sets it apart: A private terrace adjoins the room, providing an outdoor extension to the space and direct skyline views.
