All London's live music

A venue like no other

In the exceptional setting of St John’s Smith Square, live performance, acoustics, atmosphere, and architecture come together to create a rich and unforgettable experience. St John’s was designed and built by Thomas Archer and has survived fire, lightning, bomb plots and the Blitz. The Baroque beauty of the building is matched by an exceptional acoustic and from its restoration as both church and concert hall in the late 1960s, St John’s has presented some of the finest classical talent, programming choirs, chamber orchestras, and period instrument groups.
