Dinners and receptions

Letting down our guard

Nearly 1,000 years of siege, ceremony, triumphs, tears, blood and even bears help create the remarkable atmosphere you will experience inside these ancient stone walls.

Give your guests a truly unique experience with a private view of the Crown Jewels, a special Yeoman Warder tour or allow them to stand witness to the ancient Ceremony of the Keys.

St Thomas's Tower

Built over 700 years ago, these chambers were part of the Tower’s residential area. Receptions can be held in the unrestored hall, a fascinating archaeological record of the building’s history. Dinners are held in the king’s colourful bedchamber, with its grand fireplace, four poster bed and King Edward I’s oratory – the little ‘chapel over the water’.

• Capacity for up to 40 guests for a reception
• Capacity for up to 20 guests for a dinner

Wakefield Tower

This wonderful vaulted room was originally created as part of Henry III’s lodgings and was probably used by the King as a private audience chamber.

• Capacity for up to 80 guests for a reception
• Capacity for up to 40 guests for a dinner

The Jewel House

No experience of the Tower is complete without seeing the world’s most valuable array of crowns, coronation regalia and jewels. The fabled collection lies secure behind 2,000kg vault doors, but before passing through guests can enjoy a reception in the spacious Hall of Monarchs.

• Capacity for up to 150 guests for a reception.
