Overview
Henry VIII’s majestic palace of Hampton Court is situated along the banks of the River Thames and has echoed with the sound of celebrations and royal feasting for almost 500 years.
Hampton Court Palace has a multitude of possible venues which may be hired, from the Palace State Apartments to beautiful exclusive external venues and locations.
Many of the palace’s magnificent staterooms are offered for receptions, banquets/dinners and weddings.
As well as the splendour of the Palace, the surrounding grounds offer a fantastic variety of options to hold bespoke events, from a small dinner in William II’s Kings Eating Room overlooking the Privy Garden; the secluded Garden Room perfect for wedding receptions and conferences; and the beautiful Banqueting House on the edge of the river Thames.
