About the venue:

Housed within the world-famous Natural History Museum, the futuristic Earth Galleries offer a stunningly dramatic venue for corporate events. Guests enter the Earth Galleries to be faced with a giant reconstruction of the Earth suspended against a backdrop of the solar system etched onto 18m-high slate walls. Guests can take an escalator ride through the atmosphere & the Earth's crust to the very centre of our planet.

Here, guests can experience volcanic eruptions & the tremors of an earthquake in 'The Power Within' or marvel at the sparkling array of gemstones in 'Earth's Treasury'. Where first impressions count, the Earth Galleries exude a wow-factor few other venues can match.
