How to book space on campus

Our Space Management team will match your event to the right venue. You tell them what you need and they’ll recommend the best option.

Step-by-step process

  1. Download the Space Request Form (Word.doc) and complete it with as much detail as possible.
  2. Email your completed form to space@london.edu.
  3. Receive your booking confirmation. This will include your Event ID and a list of key Campus Services contacts. It is your responsibility to reach out to these teams directly.
  4. If your event is classified as a Key Event, you’ll also be asked to complete an Event Information Sheet (EIS) and attend a Key Events Meeting.

Tips for a smooth booking

  • Be flexible with dates where possible. If Thursday is preferred but Wednesday works too, mention both - this often yields better options and faster confirmations.
  • Include all space requirements: registration area, cloakroom, networking and refreshment space, speaker green room, organiser room, and any storage needs.
  • Remember that green rooms don’t automatically come with your space booking - request them separately.
  • Allow sufficient set-up and breakdown time in your booking.
  • Have a realistic idea of expected guest numbers. You will need to cap attendance at the maximum capacity of your booked space.

North Building cloakroom

The cloakroom on the ground floor of the North Building holds up to 250 coats. Booking requires three separate steps:

  1. Download and complete the Cloakroom Booking Form (Word.doc). When making your request, make sure you allow for enough time for the full event duration, including early arrivals.
  2. Email your complete form to space@london.edu
  3. Book a cloakroom attendant by contacting the Catering Events team (cateringevents@london.edu) once your cloakroom reservation is confirmed. The cloakroom should only be used when it is staffed.

Not sure where to start?

Planning your first event can feel like a lot, especially alongside your studies. Our toolkit is there to guide you, but you don't have to work it all out alone.
