Our stunning 1851 Courtyard & RCM Café can host up to 280 people for a standing event. The Courtyard is a stylish and spacious venue full of original features, overlooking the stunning Cotes-Burgan atrium with a high glass ceiling letting in incredible light. From drinks receptions to product launches, the elegant and bright setting of our RCM Café is perfect for many a celebration.

We have a built-in bar which serves food and drinks for performances. We regularly hold recitals and concerts in The 1851 Courtyard, and you are encouraged to book our students to perform as a great addition to any event.
