Name a Seat

If you are looking for a special gift for a loved one, why not name a seat in the Royal Festival Hall?  From £300, you can have a plaque with the name of someone special affixed to one of the iconic auditorium seats, designed by Robin Day, for ten years. 

We will send you, or the recipient of the gift, a certificate with the details of your seat and arrange a quiet time for you to come and see it in the Royal Festival Hall when scheduling permits. 

Name a Seat

You can have one name of up to 30 characters on each plaque.
