About Kensington Palace

For a truly unique and spectacular Christmas party venue, look no further than Kensington Palace. You will undoubtedly be familiar with this London venue. For almost 400 years, this has been home to some of England’s most famous royal families, from Queen Victoria to Diana, Princess of Wales. The venue has kept the charm that a series of stylish residents and virtuoso artists have imprinted on the palace over the centuries, and so today, a stately home remains that has equal parts functionality, beauty and history.

There are a range of spaces to choose from if looking to book your Christmas party at this grand venue, with one being the King's drawing room. Here, you will have fantastic views in a wonderfully light yet warm room that can accommodate up to 90 guests for seated dinners. The cupola room is one with even more grandeur. Here, you will dance the night away under the glow of chandeliers, in the very space that Queen Victoria was baptised surrounded by her family.

The Orangery, though, is perhaps the star of the show. Built in 1704, this building sits within its own gardens and it makes for an incredible choice of event space all year round, but particularly at Christmas, when lights will twinkle and the crisp air fills the gardens. The orangery underwent a major conservation and building project, and is now back up and running to accommodate events of up to 300 guests in a standing environment, or 200 seated. The team at Kensington Palace will work with you to create your perfect Christmas party, and share with you a list of approved suppliers. The venue has previously worked with some of the best florists, production specialists, entertainers and caterers, so they can work with you to craft your dream Christmas event.

Our event was delivered to the highest possible standard.MAY, 2025

Our event at The Orangery at Kensington Palace was an absolute dream - everything ran so smoothly and guests had a wonderful evening to mark the end of a busy conference week. Jessica and her team have mastered the art of pulling together brilliant events in this beautiful setting and our selected approved suppliers worked closely with the venue team to produce a stunning evening reception for our international delegates. The impact of the history and the heritage of this venue is second to none and our guests are still talking about what an unforgettable evening it was - one that they will remember forever. Thank you so much to the team at HRP and especially to Jess for going above and beyond to ensure that every detail of our event was delivered to the highest possible standard.

Overall, it was a lovely evening and we would recommend hosting an event with Historic Royal Palaces.MAY, 2025

The Orangery at Kensington Palace was an excellent venue to hold our dinner reception. From the moment we booked the venue, our events planner Victoria Perry kept us informed on what information and documents she needed in advance of the event and she was always very prompt to reply to any specific queries we had. She also gave us a few recommendations for suppliers when we struggled to find something suitable ourselves. Before guests arrived, all the suppliers and Victoria were onsite to oversee any issues. Our guests enjoyed the beautiful evening starting with drinks and canapes on the terrace before they moved indoors for the dinner reception. Overall, it was a lovely evening and we would recommend hosting an event with Historic Royal Palaces. Order of St John
