About this space

Set within the grounds of Sigmund Freud’s former home in Hampstead, the Freud Museum’s beautiful private garden offers a truly distinctive setting for events in London.

Surrounded by mature trees and greenery, the garden feels wonderfully secluded and peaceful, despite being just a short journey from central London. The garden holds a particularly special place in the Museum’s history: Freud spent time here with his family and friends during the final year of his life and celebrated his last birthday here in May 1939.

Accommodating up to 90 guests for standing receptions, the garden is ideal for wedding receptions, summer parties, private celebrations, corporate events and special occasions.

A marquee can also be arranged at an additional cost, creating an elegant covered setting for events and receptions. External caterers are welcome, giving you the flexibility to create an event tailored to your guests.

For evening events, guests can also enjoy the extraordinary surroundings of Freud’s former home, creating a memorable experience that combines one of Hampstead’s hidden gardens with the history and character of one of London’s most fascinating museums.

A unique and intimate London venue for an event your guests will remember.

I think this is the London venue’s best kept secret! It was a beautiful evening in the garden and everyone had a fantastic night. Stunning all round. Staff helpful and good communication. Relaxed but efficient.

An intimate, garden setting with free roam about the museum. Great service, we brought our own catering company who have worked with the staff at the Freud Museum before. Our guest were blown away with a sit down lunch in the open air.
None.

Fransisco was very helpful before and during our event. He explained everything very clearly to me and our event was fantastic. The whole venue (including the museum itself) is available to explore which was a great feature for our guests. We were allowed to arrive slightly early to set up which was helpful. Our garden party was a great success!
My only issue which cannot really be argued for is that we had to leave as soon as possible, so picking up included the time which we booked for but it did not take too long so was not a big issue.

The most incredibly accommodating staff. It was a pleasure to coordinate with Francisco and Daniel, who were always very quick to respond, practical and relaxed. Excellent communication which made our event planning vis-a-vis the venue a lovely breeze.
