Hire Sir Joseph Banks Building, Kew Royal Botanic Gardens (TW9 3AB)
The west wing of the historic Joseph Banks Building, housing Kew's Economic Botany Collection, is not open to the public - providing an ideal backdrop for your private event.
This striking, contemporary space looks great during daytime or evening events; sitting at water level, the venue has stunning views across Kew's lakes, letting in lots of natural light and making for a beautiful, tranquil setting.
The space works well when hired alongside the Orangery, which is perfect for receptions. Entry is via the private Atrium entrance - good for welcoming guests - and there is also a lawn area close by which could be used for drinks and canapés.
For corporate meetings and events, Corporate Day Delegate packages are available and include: exclusive use of the venue, access to Kew Gardens, 3 servings of tea and coffee, lunch and Kew branded stationery.
