Located in the iconic Science Museum in South Kensington, Illuminate is a purpose-built events space that redefines the conference experience for modern audiences. Designed with flexibility and innovation at its core, Illuminate offers a sleek, contemporary setting with panoramic views over London and access to the museum’s inspiring galleries.
Set across two levels, the venue can accommodate up to 450 guests, and the seamless flow between floors allows for dynamic event formats – from full-day conferences to exhibition and product displays to evening receptions.
The light / dark contrast between Level 5 with its panoramic window that floods the space with daylight, and Level 4, a blackout space that will fully immerse guests in brand experiences, gives clients the freedom to be creative in how they use Illuminate to meet their brief, supported by the museum’s expert events team who ensure a smooth, high-impact experience.
Illuminate is equipped with a state-of-the-art production system, enabling seamless integration of audio, video, and lighting – all managed by in-house production partner White Light. While exclusive in-house caterer Moving Venue is on hand to provide seasonal, sustainable, and substantial menus for clients.
Its location within one of the UK’s most visited museums adds an extra layer of excitement and inspiration, with direct access to galleries that can be incorporated into event programmes for added impact.
Whether you’re planning a tech summit, leadership forum, or creative showcase, Illuminate offers a flexible, future-facing space that makes a lasting impression.
