Victoria Art Gallery

Situated in the heart of Bath, by the iconic Pulteney Bridge and the River Avon, the Grade II listed gallery is the perfect place for an intimate wedding ceremony and drinks with your loved ones. Many couples opt for extra photographs in the nearby Parade Gardens before keeping the party going at the Roman Baths & Pump Room or the Guildhall.

At the Victoria Art Gallery couples can choose either the contemporary Lower Gallery, or the more traditional Upper Gallery. The Upper Gallery, with its beautiful decoration and natural light, makes a lovely backdrop for a ceremony and drinks reception. Surrounded by work from some of the most famous artists in the world, this really is an inspiring and elegant space, where you can choose the perfect spot to exchange your vows.

The Lower Gallery is a contemporary, airy space on the ground floor, accommodating a changing and varied exhibition programme. It’s perfect for ceremonies and drinks receptions, where you and your guests can be surrounded by sculptures, paintings or tapestries. We recommend checking that you are happy with the nature of the exhibition before booking.

Please note that there are no facilities for heating, cooling or storing food at this venue. All food and beverages brought into the venue must be ready to serve.

Facilities

The Upper Gallery

Ascend the grand staircase and step into the Upper Gallery to be surrounded by impressive artworks. Say your vows before a painting of your choosing with your guests standing intimately around you.

This elegant exhibition space is dominated by a series of historic British oil paintings, and is normally opened to the public, but can be hired exclusively for your ceremony and/or drinks reception. The Zodiac-encrusted dome that is the Rotunda (located at the top of the grand staircase) makes the ideal spot to serve your guests a glass of bubbles.

Please note, that due to the priceless works that the gallery displays, only clear drinks (i.e., champagne, white wine) are permitted in this gallery.

Ceremony & drinks reception capacity: 150. Available to hire from 6pm-10pm Tuesday-Sundays or from 8am-midnight on Mondays.

The Lower Gallery

A real chameleon of a room! The Lower Gallery plays host to an ever-changing series of exhibitions which transform the room. Choose to say ‘I do’ in a totally unique venue.

We recommend that you contact the team to find out which exhibition will be in situ ahead of your big day to check that it matches your wedding aesthetic. You can find out more about the upcoming exhibitions by viewing this link; Victoria Art Gallery
