A meeting of classical 19th-centrury grandeur and innovative modern architecture

Royal Museums Greenwich comprises of Cutty Sark, the National Maritime Museum, the Queen’s House, Royal Observatory Greenwich and the Peter Harrison Planetarium. The five world-famous museums showcase pioneering architecture, British art and history, scientific discovery and exploration – all with a local park-side setting in the UNESCO World Heritage site of Maritime Greenwich.

The National Maritime Museum features fascinating exhibits and striking Victorian architecture, set within a World Heritage Site. There are so many possibilities within this recently reopened versatile venue; its capacity for large-scale staging, rigging and branding makes it ideal for award ceremonies, gala dinners, receptions, lectures and product launches. On warm evenings receptions can be hosted under the adjacent stone colonnades with sweeping views across Greenwich Park.

Testimonials

”We were impressed at every stage of the procurement process by Lettice Events, who were able to clearly demonstrate their creativity, their willingness to go the extra mile for their clients, and their dedication to operating sustainably. As a certified B Corp company, their focus not only on becoming carbon neutral but also on making sure they consciously and consistently support the welfare of their staff we felt was particularly important, and that’s all before we even tried their food, which was of course sublime. We very much look forward to working with the whole team behind Lettice Events and making memorable, luxury, sustainable event experiences for our clients.”
