The venue is located at the intersection of Exhibition Road and Kensington Gore. We would highly recommend travelling by public transport with the nearest underground stations being South Kensington (Piccadilly, District & Circle lines) and Knightsbridge (Piccadilly line) which are approximately a 10-15 minute walk. There is also a bus stop outside the Royal Albert Hall which is served by the following bus routes: 9, 23, 52 and 452. Address: 1 Kensington Gore, London, SW7 2AR

The Society has a small car park with a few spaces that can be booked by venue hire clients subject to availability. If you would like to book a space then please contact venue hire with the details of your car (car make, registration, colour, owner and contact number).

There are two entrances to the building (Exhibition Road and Kensington Gore) so please refer to your package details for your designated event entrance.

The Exhibition Road and Kensington Gore entrances are both wheelchair accessible. There are a set of steps on the ground floor of the venue (connecting the Theatre to the ambulatory), but a stairlift is available for wheelchair users. The Lowther Room is located on the first floor but can be accessed by a small lift. Unfortunately, the Council Room is not wheelchair accessible. Should you expect wheelchair users or have any further queries about accessibility then please contact venue hire in advance.

Registered assistance dogs are very welcome, however other pets cannot be accommodated at the venue.

The Main Hall is licensed to host civil ceremonies until 5 pm so do make sure to get in touch with Westminster Council directly to book your ceremony.
