Large-scale events

Make it a day to remember at Hampton Court

Set amid 750 acres of rolling parkland and just a stone’s throw from London, Hampton Court Palace makes a truly breathtaking backdrop for large-scale and commercial events, from corporate gatherings to extravagant private parties.

With its atmospheric courtyards and unspoilt grassland, Hampton Court boasts a variety of scenic outdoor spaces, all of which afford unforgettable views of one of the greatest palaces ever built. By arrangement, marquees and other structures can be erected on our marquee sites, so you can rest assured that your event will be a success come rain or shine.

20th Century Gardens

A hidden gem of peace and tranquillity within the palace’s 60 acres of formal gardens, the 20^th Century Garden is perfectly suited to summer parties, family fun days and extra-special receptions. As the name suggests, the informal ornamental trees and hedges of the 20^th Century Garden have a distinctly modern flavour, in contrast to the rest of Hampton Court.

Home Park

Home Park comprises 750 acres of unspoilt grassland, dotted with ancient oaks and criss-crossed with avenues of lime trees, which you and your guests will be sharing with 270 majestic deer – the descendants of Henry VIII’s original herd.

Fountain Court

Fountain Court is one of the finest examples of Baroque architecture in England and has remained virtually unchanged since its construction for William III and Mary II. Overlooked by magnificent red brick elevations designed by Sir Christopher Wren, this Baroque quadrangle is dominated by a large pool and fountain from which the name derives.
