Tate Britain

Enter Tate Britain through the grand Millbank entrance, just off the River Thames, and be welcomed by The Duveens—a magnificent 300-foot gallery with high barrel-vaulted ceilings and a stunning central space: The Octagon. Completed in 1937, The Duveens were the first galleries in Britain specifically designed to display sculpture, making them a unique and historic space for your event. This expansive venue, known for hosting temporary exhibitions from prominent British and international artists, transforms into a breathtaking setting for high-end fashion shows, gala dinners, and prestigious award ceremonies. With the artwork setting a creative atmosphere, The Duveens offer an unforgettable experience for guests. From 15th February to 27th April 2025, the venue’s capacity expands to 900 standing, making it perfect for large-scale events. Otherwise, it comfortably hosts up to 300 guests for receptions or luxury dinners. Available for evening hire from 6 PM onwards.
