Contemporary or industrial?

A contemporary venue is new or newly designed: white walls, glass, wood and concrete. An industrial venue keeps the brick and steel of an old factory. Many of our venues mix the two; if you want the raw look, see our warehouse venues and loft venues.

Screens and tech

46 of the 57 venues on this page have a large TV screen, 22 a projector with a screen and 56 Wi-Fi. Tell us about presentations, video calls or hybrid sessions when you enquire, and we check the set-up with the venue.
