About the Fitzrovia Chapel

The Fitzrovia Chapel is an enchanting jewel of Byzantine inspired architecture located in the heart of the Fitzrovia community. As the former chapel of the Middlesex Hospital, it is a place of meaning, memory and sanctuary for many. Today the chapel is an enriching cultural space for creative health and wellbeing.

It offers a distinctive artistic programme, supporting emerging and established artists and learning opportunities. The chapel is a space for quiet reflection, discovery and celebration, connecting a diversity of communities, visitors and partners.

A registered charity without public subsidy, the chapel’s charitable activities and preservation of the building are mostly funded through commercial hire. This includes weddings, exhibitions, book launches and shoots. The Fitzrovia Chapel is open to everyone of all faiths, beliefs, backgrounds and cultures.

The King chose the chapel as the location for his Christmas Broadcast in December 2024.

We hold a Wedding Open House most months. Please contact our Weddings Team on weddings@fitzroviachapel.org

Marchlands: The Space Between

Marchlands: The Space Between

23 to 26 February | In medieval times, the marchlands were the lands comprising the borders of a territory. Over centuries, they’ve taken on a mythic resonance: the edge of the map, the space between what is seen and what is sensed.
