Hosting Events at Green Templeton College
As Oxford's liveliest graduate-only college, Green Templeton hosts a busy calendar of academic and social events and activities in the iconic 18th century Radcliffe Observatory and surrounding buildings.
These wide-ranging activities form an essential part of life at GTC and College members are encouraged to make the most of the resources on offer.
We are also delighted to offer access to our facilities to external clients for hosting meetings or to groups wishing to experience private dining at an Oxford college.
Green Templeton is proud of its reputation for providing a high level of service and outstanding cuisine. From simple sandwich lunches to elegant formal dining, we have menus and wines to suit every taste. Our creative Kitchen Team styles delicious, beautifully-presented meals with carefully-chosen wines.
Situated to the north of the city on the Woodstock Road, Green Templeton is conveniently located a short walk from the city centre and bus and train stations. More information on our location here.
