The Kia Oval has become a hidden gem for organisers looking for the perfect spot for their conferences and events. Benefiting from parking for up to 50 cars onsite and 4 minutes walking time from the transport hub of Vauxhall you wonโt find a central London venue with such accessible transport links and free parking.
Here at the Kia Oval, we live by the ethos that the costumer deserves, and should get, the best; every enquiry is treated with the same level of dedication and each event is dealt with by one event co-ordinator from the point of enquiry right through to the morning of your event where our experienced operational team take over. Our catering and operations are in the safe and experienced hands of Compass who bring passion, creativity and excellence to every plate and have a wealth of experience in all thingโs events. Our devotion to service and passion for events means we offer each client a bespoke experience because your event is one of a kind so your service should be too.
Plenty of space to choose from
The ground boasts an incredible array of rooms in three stands which are less than 3 minutesโ walk from each other.ย Many of our events take place in our purpose-built JM Finn Stand which was opened in 2005. This building houses over 25 separate rooms each built to be flooded with natural daylight. Our Jardine Suite spreads over the ground floor of the building, with over 1500m2 of exhibition space and vehicular access. All other rooms in this stand can be reached by two central staircases meaning each room is minutes from one another. The JM Finn Stand has the great advantage of outside space for each of the rooms, with access to spectator seating. Six of the rooms even lead out onto beautiful, covered terrace areas. In fact, the entire stand is topped with the magnificent Corinthian Roof Terrace with sweeping panoramic views across London which is perfect for Summer Parties.
The more traditional side of the ground is our Pavilion which was completed just in time for the start of the 1898 season and even though there has been many adjustments, additions, and renovations the original footprint and bones still exist to this day. This gorgeous building houses the wonderfully historic, wood-panelled and chandeliered Long Room which has its own private bar attached as well as our exclusive committee room; perfect for director dinners or impressing key clients.
The newest stand at the Kia Oval is our Galadari Stand. Completed in 2021 this incredible building holds more than 3500m2 of event space. The two large internal rooms (the 175 Suite and the Duchy Suite) have 6m high ceilings with direct access on to private terraces. This stand is crowned by another fabulous terrace for 450 people that gives uninterrupted views across London.
On occasion, event organisers have the incredible opportunity to host their conference with the backdrop of domestic cricket. This works perfectly for summer parties, or for a conference with a twist, and delegates can move from our events facilities to our terraces to continue the day with the fantastic atmosphere of the T20 Blast. There is nowhere else in the world, let alone London, with an experience quite like this.
