Norwich Cathedral is a memorable setting for your corporate event or private party. Set in forty-four acres of its own grounds, Norwich Cathedral can offer a range of venues for hire. All are unusual and ensure your corporate event or private party will be memorable.

A choice of four very special venues for hire
The Refectory is an award-winning modern building with views of the Cathedral spire; most of our functions take place here. However by special arrangement we can also offer three other exclusive venues for hire:
- our medieval Cloister provides an unusual setting for events,
- a marquee on the Close green is a beautiful location and can cater for large numbers, and
- sometimes we can also make available the Cathedral Nave, a truly unique venue.
The Refectory
The Refectory is generally available outside normal hours. By offering a variety of layouts and staffing levels we can cater for everything from a wedding reception seating 100 to a working breakfast, to canapés before a concert in the Cathedral, to a product launch drinks reception for 150.
For example we recently hosted a reception following the regional premiere of the film An Interview with Dean Spanley, which was partly filmed at Norwich Cathedral.
What we offer you
- We work with you to ensure that each event is tailored to your needs. Our choice of venues means that we can cater for a wider range of events.
- We can offer you a selection of menus and fine wines.
- Our staff take a personal interest in making your event a success.
- We hold a premises licence which covers sale of alcohol, live and recorded music and dance performances. This covers, not only the Refectory, but the Cathedral and Cloister also. For special occasions we may also be able to apply for a licence to cover the upper and lower Close greens as well as later hours than our standard licence
