Central London's largest conference and events venue has welcomed an array of illustrious speakers through the ages - including Gandhi, Churchill and the Prince of Wales. Built in 1912 and located just across the road from the Houses of Parliament and Westminster Abbey, the imposing Central Hall Westminster has 22 function rooms and can sit up to 2,160 delegates in its auditorium. Combining its dual functions as a conference / event venue and a Methodist church, Central Hall is also an impressive historical landmark boasting Europe's largest self-supporting concrete dome ceiling. Visitors can explore the inside of the Edwardian structure for free, with guided tours operating daily from 9.30am to 5pm. There are also monthly concerts performed inside the main hall, which in 1946 held the first General Assembly of the United Nations. While refurbished to meet the needs of a modern functions host, the venue still has a strong period feel to it and has featured in a number of films, including 'Calendar Girls' and 'Jekyll and Hyde'.
