Royal Geographical Society (with IBG)

The Royal Geographical Society (with IBG) occupies a distinctive position in Kensington, offering seven spaces that range from an intimate reception setting to a substantial auditorium. The Ondaatje Theatre accommodates up to 450, while the Main Hall suits receptions of up to 150 - a pairing that gives event planners meaningful scope depending on the format and scale they have in mind. On-site facilities include high-speed internet, air conditioning, onsite catering, breakout rooms and natural light, with basic and recessed lighting complementing the architectural detailing found throughout the building's interior. The combination of practical infrastructure and considered surroundings lends the venue a character that goes beyond a standard conference setting. South Kensington Underground Station is a 14-minute walk away, and London City Airport is reachable in around 50 minutes by car. The Natural History Museum is an 11-minute walk, and Hyde Park is within 18 minutes on foot - useful context for delegates arriving early or building a wider programme around the day.
