About Christ Church Spitalfields

Christ Church Spitalfields is an iconic Grade I listed venue in the heart of East London, combining rich history, baroque architecture, and all the mod cons you might need. Designed by Nicholas Hawksmoor and completed in 1729, this architectural masterpiece is a blank canvas for a wide range of events, from elegant weddings to corporate conferences, private parties and award ceremonies.

Located just eight minutes from Liverpool Street Station, the venue offers a central location with impressive facilities, making it as practical as it is stunning. With the capacity to host events for 10 to 600 guests, Christ Church Spitalfields is ideal for both intimate gatherings and large-scale celebrations.

This grand setting accommodates up to 250 seated guests or 600 standing, making it perfect for weddings, dinners, receptions and Christmas parties. Uplighters are included to enhance the atmosphere, and an in-house PA system with microphones ensures your event’s speeches or entertainment flow seamlessly.

It can host up to 60 seated guests or 300 standing and features a built-in bar, making it ideal for receptions, dance floors, or post-dinner drinks.
