20 Cavendish Square - W1's Conference Centre & Events Venue

Forget the open-door policy, we’ve got an ‘open-wall policy’ here at 20 Cavendish Square! If you’re in the market for a contemporary setting for your next conference, away day, or general meeting, but need a little more space than one of our rooms can provide, we’ve got just the thing. Two of our rooms, Annie Altschul and Agnes Hunt, feature a moveable wall, so they can open into one single, bright, and modern hub for your showstopper of an event, allowing up to 100 people to fit comfortably! And best of all; it's easy to sort this for your next event! Simply mention it to our team, and we'll get right on it in time for your big day.

Modern features, old-style Westminster prestige - say hello to the Sarah Swift Room. Named after one of the founders of the Royal College of Nursing, the rich period features in the Sarah Swift room give off the unmistakable feeling of the storied halls of power that our home borough, the City of Westminster, has in spades. It may feel like you're stepping back in time, but you don’t need to leave the modern technology behind - the room is equipped with a full suite of cutting-edge audio-visual equipment, as well as easy-to-use video conferencing, so you can make your remote delegates extremely jealous of the grand surroundings you're spending the day in!

Ready, set… eat! 🍽️ An event of over 100 delegates, fresh from a session and ready for lunch? Just another day in the life for us and our amazing team.  When you’re a guest at 20 Cavendish Square, you can leave the packed lunch at home, and forget the fuss. Whether your event is large, small, or anywhere in between, our catering partners Seasoned are ready to put on a selection of food that will fuel you for the learning, discussion, and memory-making that’ll be coming up.

Your event’s ready and our staff are hard at work preparing Cowdray Hall, your cue cards are written and laminated, and your presentation is ready! But how on earth will you be able to present to such a huge crowd, and in such a large space? It’s enough to keep you up the night before, stressing and trying to find a solution. Shouting the whole time? Buying a megaphone? Getting everyone to follow along on Zoom? Forget all that - just leave that to our trusty audio-visual team. They’ll be with you every step of the way, making sure you can be heard, seen and appreciated throughout the event, and even ensuring that those who can’t be there on the day can be part of the experience through livestreaming functionality.

The jewel in our crown - Cowdray Hall! 👑 Whether it be spectacular cabaret, a packed-out theatre, or an inspiring boardroom, you can’t do much better than Cowdray Hall. The Hall is steeped in tradition, but stands ready for all types of events, with original oak doors & panelling also playing host to a cutting-edge AV system including a full lighting suite, wireless microphones, and total connectivity with overflow rooms, making for a seamless experience for all your delegates.

Have you ever heard of a Trampoline Cafe? Leave your lunch break with a nourished soul as well as a stomach - our on-site cafe, Trampoline, is staffed entirely by members of Britain’s refugee community. Here, they can learn valuable skills and receive meaningful employment, training, and integration, to boost their progression to becoming independent citizens once again following a difficult period in their lives. ❤️ What’s more, Trampoline Cafe features specially crafted menus by experienced Chef Yogeswaran Sivakolundu, bringing a delicious blend of British, Indian, and Sri Lankan delights to your plate, freshly made every day! Trampoline has something for everyone - head on down next time you’re at 20 Cavendish Square, and say hello!

An accessible, beautiful venue, ideal for your delegates both near and far! 🛤️ 20 Cavendish Square is about as central as you can get in London - making it ideal for events where many will be travelling from outside of ‘The Big Smoke’ 💨 You can make it from Charing Cross Station to our front door in 13 MINUTES via the Tube - not even enough time for your train station coffee to cool down! Not only that, but our venue is a stone’s throw from one of the trendiest streets in the capital - we really do have it all… 😏

Sometimes, a change of scenery is all that’s needed to get that much-needed breather from an intense meeting or event - and we’ve got just the thing! 🌳 We’re lucky to have the stunning Cavendish Square Gardens, one of London’s famous circular parks, quite literally on our doorstep! Simply pop over the road, find yourself a bench or a patch of greenery, and say hello to the statue of Lord Cavendish-Bentinck on your way. 👋

If these walls could talk, imagine the stories they could tell… Our gorgeous venue is a 300-year-old Grade II listed Georgian townhouse right in the heart of W1, but don’t let our protection status fool you - there’s plenty more happening under our bonnet! With full modern amenities and an on-site audio/visual team standing ready to bring even the most modern conferences, meetings, or exhibitions to life, 20 Cavendish Square stands ready to bring even the most modern events to life in unforgettable fashion for the next 300 years and beyond. ⭐
