Vision Redbridge Culture & Leisure

Vision Venues is the venue-hire service operated by Vision Redbridge Culture & Leisure, offering event organisers a broad selection of spaces across Ilford and the surrounding Redbridge area. Its portfolio includes historic public buildings, theatres, libraries, halls, country-style venues, sports facilities and outdoor locations, giving organisers several options for different event formats and guest numbers.

The venues are suitable for weddings, civil ceremonies, birthday parties, anniversaries, private celebrations, corporate gatherings, awards ceremonies, meetings, workshops, presentations, seminars, team activities and community events. Organisers can choose from intimate rooms for smaller occasions through to larger halls capable of hosting substantial receptions, dinner dances, theatre-style events and conferences.

Several locations combine character with practical event facilities. Depending on the venue, these may include licensed bars, kitchens, servery areas, tables and chairs, stage lighting, PA equipment, dressing rooms, pianos, Wi-Fi and spaces suitable for catering. External caterers are welcome at selected venues, while some locations can also offer food and beverage options through the in-house team.

The collection includes venues such as Redbridge Town Hall, Valentines Mansion and Gardens, Foxburrows Barn, Lakeside Suite at Fairlop Waters, Sir James Hawkey Hall, Redbridge Drama Centre and library-based event rooms. Kenneth More Theatre in Oakfield Road also provides foyer, bar, studio and rehearsal spaces for hire while its main auditorium undergoes refurbishment.

Vision Venues supports organisers from the initial enquiry through to selecting a suitable location. The booking team can help match the event type, capacity, facilities and budget with an appropriate venue, making the service useful for both private clients and professional event planners looking for flexible spaces in and around Ilford.
