Hire The East and West Foyers, The British Museum (WC1B 3DG)

Alternatively, please email us
or call us on 0207 870 9305.

The East and West foyers are used in conjunction with the BP and Stevenson Lecture Theatres respectively but can be hired individually for receptions, dinners or as an exhibition space.

The foyers extend the aesthetics of the Great Court and are constructed from limestone, providing a clean, sophisticated space in which to impress guests or delegates. They provide a welcome ‘blank canvas’ for clients wishing to brand the space and to exhibit their company or products with elegance and style.

The large open space of the foyers is also perfect as a venue for a seated dinner for up to 120 people or a reception for up to 329. Each foyer has ample space for registration and cloakroom facilities.

Area dimensions East foyer: 248m2 West foyer: 248m2
