St Martin-in-the-Fields was the ideal central London venue for our event.

Went to see the Space light show. I thought it was a bit disjointed if I'm honest. The first part is in the crypt, the video of the moon landing was ok but really couldn't understand what was going on with the lights in the crypt. The Main event was in the church itself and it was good. I do admire this Church for always thinking of ways to raise money and open it's doors to the public. It's reasonably priced too.

I visited the crypt, an atmosphere made fascinating by the fact that every stone could tell decades of history. The spaces have been assigned for restaurants, events, and a tourist shop. If you're in the area, it's worth entering; it's free.
