The Coronet

Venue Review of The Coronet

One of London’s best-known live music venues, the Coronet Theatre in Southwark is also a flexible function space that lends itself as readily to multimedia conferencing as product launches and parties. A substantial refurb in 2003 restored many of the original 1920s features of the art deco building while adding state-of-the-art AV facilities. The auditorium can hold 1,072 in theatre-style seating and 1,500 for a reception, with the balcony as an overflow for larger events. There are three function rooms available for meetings or drinks receptions, the largest of which can hold 300 guests standing, while the 500-capacity outdoor area has a permanent cover to protect guests from the elements.
