We are proud to announce the reopening of our iconic Wolfson Theatre, following an extensive refurbishment. Located within our iconic Grade I listed building, the theatre is our largest built-in tiered auditorium and a space that now champions sustainability and inclusivity.
Sustainability is a key part of every aspect of RCP London Events' operations, from catering to waste management. With the refurbishment of the Wolfson Theatre, we have taken further strides to ensure that our approach to design and functionality aligns with our commitment to environmental responsibility.
Minimising environmental impact
Every element of the refurbishment was carefully selected to minimise environmental impact while enhancing the delegate experience. The theatre now features carpets made from Econyl yarn, a material crafted from recovered fishing nets, thanks to the eco-conscious expertise of Balsan, a French supplier committed to reducing the environmental footprint of its products. The seating, provided by Audience Systems in Wiltshire, is not only designed for comfort and durability but is also manufactured in the UK, reducing the carbon footprint associated with transportation. The wood panelling, supplied by Naturewall, is hand-made in East Yorkshire using sustainable materials, including recycled felt, and offers acoustic properties that ensure a superior auditory experience.
These changes not only reduce the environmental impact of the theatre but also create a space that is both modern and mindful of its ecological footprint.
Inclusive design for all
In addition to our sustainable approach, the redesign of the Wolfson Theatre places a strong emphasis on accessibility, particularly for neurodivergent individuals. The updated interiors feature a muted and neutral colour scheme, incorporating shades of grey and green, intended to create a calming environment that is sensitive to the needs of all attendees.
Textured surfaces and natural materials have been incorporated to add depth and warmth to the space without overwhelming the senses. The theatre is also equipped with the latest in accessibility technology, including Mobile Connect for assisted listening, live captioning and signing on request, ensuring that it is a welcoming environment for everyone. A motorised accessible platform lift is also available to accommodate wheelchairs and mobility scooters.
These thoughtful updates highlight our dedication to creating a space that is modern, mindful of its ecological impact and aligned with the values of today’s event organisers.

Investing in the future
This refurbishment marks a significant investment in the future of RCP London Events, positioning the Wolfson Theatre as a top choice for event organisers who prioritise sustainability, inclusivity and innovation.
The revamp follows on the heels of our recent win at the 2024 Conference and Events Awards, where we took home Gold for ‘Best Venue (up to 500 attendees theatre style)’.
Our Head of Commercial Events, Natacha Allen, shared her enthusiasm about the reimagined space: “We are excited to unveil the reimagined Wolfson Theatre, a space that not only reflects our commitment to sustainability but also creates an inclusive environment for all attendees. This refurbishment represents a significant investment in the future, ensuring that the Wolfson Theatre remains a top choice for event organisers who value sustainability, accessibility, and innovation.”
With its mindful design and updated facilities, the Wolfson Theatre is set to continue serving as a premier venue for conferences and events. We look forward to welcoming you and your guests to this forward-thinking space.
