Plan your Goldsmiths visit

🏛️ Start with the hall

Goldsmiths makes a striking backdrop for a conversation about books. Red brick, white window frames and a grand arched entrance give the building its character before you reach the door.

Your destination is the Richard Hoggart Building on Lewisham Way, which houses the Great Hall. The hall hosts public literary events, author conversations and poetry readings alongside cultural markets.

For a first visit, choose an advertised public event and check its date, entry arrangements and room details before travelling. Bring the event listing with you and use the full building name when planning your route.
