Venues

We are delighted to be welcoming a new venue – St Paul’s Church in Covent Garden – to our venue collection this summer.

The stunning Grade I-listed building with award-winning gardens promises to be the perfect location for garden parties, weddings, corporate events, and more. However, what sets this venue apart from others is its unique and versatile purpose as a rehearsal and performance space for music and theatre. By combining the rich cultural history and architecture of the building with first-class hospitality, this space offers a truly unique and unforgettable experience for guests.

St Paul’s Church, also known as Actors Church, is a historic building set among beautiful grounds, making it the ideal setting for outdoor events. Party Ingredients has grand ideas for transforming the space into bespoke event spaces, accommodating up to 225 guests. With its stunning backdrop of the church, the space is perfect for weddings, parties, and corporate events that require a touch of elegance. The church’s unique design is a masterpiece of 17th-century English architect, Inigo Jones. Characterised by the Italian Renaissance style and his clever use of light, St Paul’s is a much-admired landmark in the heart of London and a prime example of English classical architecture. Its large windows allow natural light to flood the interior and create a sense of spaciousness and grandeur and the church’s interior is also adorned with intricate carvings and sculptures, including a marble altar and a pulpit featuring the figure of St. Paul. Guests can further enjoy recognising famous actors and actresses from the commemorative plaques which cover the walls of the church, adding to its personality.

Being just a stone’s throw away from all the action of Covent Garden, St Paul’s Church offers a most desirable location to entertain clients and friends. Covent Garden is considered one of the most vibrant and lively areas of London. Situated in the heart of the city, it’s a hub for entertainment, shopping, and culture. The area is known for its beautiful architecture, bustling markets, street performers, and world-class theatres. Guests can enjoy private access from the piazza at Covent Garden which leads to a stunning courtyard at the back of the church.

What’s truly exciting about this new venue is its versatility; from marquees in the gardens to transforming the inside of the church for smart dinners or banquets complete with recitals to entertain guests; the opportunities are endless.
