Conway Hall

This is a lovely old-fashioned venue which has its own unique charm.We held an event here on a weekend and the staff were really helpful, especially with last minute changes and helping us with workarounds. We hired the whole venue and had easy access to the different rooms.The only issues were that the chairs on the balcony were a bit run down, and the doors to the mainhall were quite loud when opening and closing. Glad to have hired the whole venue as the main hall isn't sound proofed, and noise from the corridors really travels.

Prices are reasonable for tickets and drinks and they attract wonderful talent but the seats are atrocious. They were like school seats for five year-olds, plastic, hard and very uncomfortable. We went to the balcony after intermission because those seats looked cushioned and more comfortable but they were dreadfully old, ripped and some were sloped/broken.

A Weekend to Remember at Conway HallThe iconic venue held an event across the last weekend of July 2023 to celebrate the contribution of Bertrand Russell. Using literary and cultural aestheticisms to explore the man behind words and theories he dedicated his life to explaining.Russell's illustrious background meant that his quintessence as an English gentleman was preoccupied with the theme of progeny. As his father was a peer in the House of Lords passed hereditary position to Bertrand Russell and the impenetrability that comes with that level of social responsibility to being embedded in the British gentry through birth right.Each exercise set by the artists @Tobias Kidd and @Lottie McCarthy were integral to unpacking the individual behind the written words explored by the Reith's Lectures amongst his other works. The body of work produced by Bertrand Russell opened up a debate about the human condition as well as the right each individual has to change their mind in regards to thinking something could work better from a different perspective or guise.Soggy summer felt like something that was so far removed from the reality felt outside because the experiences generated by like minded souls made the hours spent together whizz by. It may have been raining profusely outside but the spaces held such a bright light that shone on all the contributions given by the attendees.From the working room on the ground floor to the library a sense of Bertrand Russell tingled along with each attendee's reinterpretation of his work taking on such poignancy to all who saw the works the group produced.Pictured the scenes: involving delightful ideas following, delivering lines and a sincere determination to give the work of Bertrand Russell much deserved respect in each given performance. Russell's life was rhythmic and colourful by attracting enigma in all he achieved.The partnership of Camden Council was prevalent in this initiative to encourage its past residents who made local contributions to this part of North London specifically continue to live on - in the consciousness’s of each attendee who visited the Conway Hall across the last weekend of July.

Love the humanist ethos of this place. I've seen quite a few of the Sunday chamber music recitals over the years here. I really recommend them - top musicians and tickets are very reasonably priced

wow.Have you ever attended an event and thought: I'd have paid three-times what I paid!" as you left?That's how I felt after my first experience of 'Sunday Concerts' last night.Music came courtesy of PIATTI QUARTET — who

total gem of a venue nestled away n central London. I attended a small conference for creatives and the hall with its balcony seating with bunting hanging across the hall was the perfect venue, strong community vibes

We've been here several times. We went last month for the presentation of Dr Chris Van Tulleken's book 'Ultra Processed People'. It's a big hall and we have always felt comfortable when there. Staff are polite and well organised.

I visited for Fabrizio Paterlini’s piano concert. What a treat, as the artist himself exclaims, the hall has an outstanding sound quality. Perhaps it is the shallow curve of the ceiling in the main hall and the wood panelling, the sound is full and carries evenly to each corner of the space.The main hall has large area to seat up to 350, with balcony space for a further 150. Conway hall also has a few side halls and rooms making this a versatile area for events up to a medium size. There are two ladies rest rooms and a men’s rest room, plus a bar at which prices were reasonable for London. A lovely venue close to Holborn tube, bus routes, taxis and a ten minute walk to Farringdon

This hall and room hire venue has a library, meeting rooms and a small performance stage.All the ground floor rooms are wheelchair accessible but there is no lift to the upper floor.First opened in 1929, Conway Hall is owned by Conway Hall Ethical Society - the world's longest-running 'free-thought' organisation it is still renowned as a hub for free speech and independent thought. 'Power to the teddies'!The staff is friendly and helpful.I was here with my human mummy for recital. Callum Smart and Richard Utley.
