Lea Valley Academy

Lea Valley Academy offers a varied choice of spaces for organisers looking to host an event, activity or community gathering in Enfield. Facilities available to hire include a large main hall, a dining hall, drama and dance studios, classrooms, a sports hall, outdoor pitches and a multi-use games area. The spaces are made available outside school hours, with bookings handled through the academy’s community lettings service.

The main hall measures 16.5 by 20 metres and can seat around 500 to 600 people in a theatre-style layout. It can be expanded into adjoining spaces for larger gatherings. The dining hall can accommodate up to 192 people on its own, or join with the main hall for a larger conference-style arrangement. These rooms can suit presentations, performances, exhibitions, family gatherings and other events. Smaller rooms provide alternatives for workshops, rehearsals and group sessions.

For active programmes, the sports hall has markings and equipment for activities such as badminton, basketball, volleyball, cricket, netball and football, with changing facilities available. The full-sized floodlit 4G pitch can be configured for 11-a-side or 5-a-side football, and other outdoor facilities include grass pitches and a multi-use games area. Parking and accessible facilities are available at the site.

Organisers should check the individual room details before booking, as equipment and conditions differ between spaces. Audio-visual equipment is not provided in the main hall, and kitchen access requires a separate booking. Some party types and decorations are restricted. The lettings team can advise on availability, event pricing and the best space for a planned gathering.
