About The London Library

The London Library is available for evening hire for a range of business and corporate events, including networking, dinners, receptions, awards, presentations, launches and celebrations.

With an enviable location directly off St James’s Square and a minute’s walk from Piccadilly and Pall Mall, the Library's stunning, yet modest façade hides a wealth of amazing features making it one of the most unique venue hire spaces in London. Hire is available on Wednesday - Saturday evenings, after 5.30pm.

Offering stunning views across St James’s Square, double-height, book-lined walls and elegant ironwork balustrades the Reading Room is the main space for events and the heart of the London Library. The space can host up to 200 guests for a standing reception, 100 guests for a seated dinner, theatre-style presentation or award ceremony.

Alongside the beautiful architecture and rich creative history, the venue is in a perfect location for attracting delegates and clients. Being only several minutes walk from Green Park and Piccadilly Circus underground stations, and less than 10 minutes walk from Charing Cross mainline station, clients can be assured of being in the very heart of the city and benefiting from the prestige of the many other historic institutions nearby.

There are several spaces available within the Library that balance beautiful 19th-century interiors with other more contemporary styles whilst always highlighting the vast and varied collection of rare books and manuscripts.
