VR Hire Wimbledon
A new stadium at Plough Lane taking up to 600, a Georgian mansion on the Common, and a 1,670-seat theatre on the Broadway. SW19 has considerably more to offer than the fortnight everyone knows about.
We know Wimbledon's venues
Speaking of which: during The Championships, from late June into early July, an event traffic order closes roads and suspends parking right across Wimbledon Village and Church Road. It is comprehensive, it is enforced, and it makes a corporate event anywhere nearby a genuine struggle. We flag it immediately. Worth saying plainly too — the All England Club is a private members' club for fifty weeks of the year and does not offer general commercial venue hire, whatever a search result might imply.
What is available is good. The Cherry Red Records Stadium at Plough Lane runs suites and boxes from two people to 600 in a ground that only opened recently, so the facilities are modern and the access is sensible. Hotel du Vin Cannizaro House gives you a Georgian mansion on the edge of the Common with six event rooms. The whole borough sits inside the ULEZ, which our vehicles clear as standard.
AFC Wimbledon, Plough Lane, 2 to 600 guests
Georgian mansion, six event rooms, the Common
1,670-seat main house plus 80-seat studio
Refurbished, 300 raked seats, conferences and awards
Five meeting rooms, 2 to 165 delegates
Broadway and Merton floors take a full build
Rooms we work in around Wimbledon and SW19. The All England Club is a private members' club outside the fortnight and doesn't offer commercial hire, so it isn't an option however the search results read.

Travel
Wimbledon and Greater London include travel as standard, ULEZ included. Dates in late June and early July get checked against the Championships traffic order, which reshapes SW19 more completely than anything else in the calendar.
Booking
The tennis fortnight plus December together shape the calendar here. Outside them SW19 is comfortable, and Plough Lane's newer facilities have better availability than the older venues nearby.
