Mall Galleries is one of central London’s most versatile venues for exhibitions and events. Just round the corner from Trafalgar Square, a well-known art and culture spot, our three interconnecting galleries offer over 450sqm of space.

The galleries are ideal for a wide range of exhibition types. Here, the team have put together some of our favourites.

1. Auctions

The gallery’s Westminster location, just steps from St James’s Park, is incredibly convenient for collectors and buyers, making it a great spot for art and antique auctions.

When Lyon & Turnbull brought their most recent auction to Mall Galleries, which included an original Lowry, the combination of display and live event atmosphere ensured the works were showcased with elegance, allowing for optimal viewing for guests.

2. Open Exhibitions

Mall Galleries has a long history of hosting prestigious open exhibitions. The size and layout of the space allows for hundreds of works to be displayed in harmony, giving equal importance to established names alongside emerging talent. Our receiving room and technical support means that works can be dropped off from throughout the country, or even world!

The ING Discerning Eye exhibition is a crowd favourite, where invited artists exhibit alongside submissions from an international open call, drawing an audience from across the country.

3. Photography Exhibitions

The high ceilings and clean white walls of Mall Galleries are the perfect backdrop to a range of photography themes and subjects.

A recent exhibition, the World Food Photography Awards, made use of these blank walls to display a huge variety of photography in several unique and creative ways.

4. Fundraisers

All exhibition hire at Mall Galleries comes with an evening event included. Why not use this to organise a charity fundraiser?

Fundraising exhibitions like David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation use Mall Galleries to highlight their cause, raising money and awareness through art. They also offered free workshops and events throughout the exhibition, thanks to the amount of space on offer in the galleries.

5. Art Fairs

With three connected gallery spaces, it is easy to create a flow between stands and curated displays. Our tech team is able to install free-standing walls and change the shape of the space.

Women in Art Fair shows how the venue can host a multi-artist event, giving both exhibitors and visitors an environment to connect and celebrate art.

However, the list doesn’t stop there. The blank canvas of Mall Galleries is a fantastic starting point for your exhibition, and the Mall Galleries Venue Hire team can help you make your vision a reality!
