Music halls can be traced back to the taverns and coffee houses of 18th century London where men met to eat, drink and do business. Today, the music halls of time gone by make an impressive backdrop for parties, product launches and drinks receptions. Here are a few of our favourites.

A Grade II* listed building, the Hackney Empire has spent the last 100 years presenting the arts in all incarnations, from Charlie Chaplin, the BBC and Gilbert & Sullivan to Arcade Fire, Russell Brand and Hercule Poirot not to mention London’s No.1 pantomime.
Wilton’s Music Hall
The auditorium was built in 1858 as a grand space filled with glorious decorations. Today, after many years of dereliction, many of it’s original features remain and it continues to be a stunning and atmospheric space for events.
