Your Guide to Hiring Conference Venues in Soho

At Tagvenue we know that trawling the internet in search of the perfect conference venue can be exhausting. That’s why we’ve taken the sting out of things for you and listed the best conference rooms in Soho all in one place. And the cherry on top? No matter how unusual your requirements are, with our smart search engine you’re sure to find a venue that meets them. It’s as simple as that!

Soho, a vibrant and active neighbourhood widely known for its nightlife, can be just as glamorous during the day. Although it could merely seem like just a fun area for entertainment, artistic expression, and architecture, Soho can also be a fantastic location for conferences, meetings and other business functions. This London area has everything, from little event venues to large theatres and conference facilities, and we are here to help you find the ideal location for your upcoming event.

When choosing the ideal location for a conference, there are a few key considerations to keep in mind. Here is a quick checklist we've created for you:

  • The expected attendance - always start by making a rough estimate of the number of attendees and if possible, their background and preferences
  • Your budget - set a realistic budget and stick to it
  • Time and date - choose a convenient time and date  when making arrangements and setting a budget for the event
  • The event schedule - prioritise making a clear event agenda
  • Catering - hire a reputable caterer and make sure to provide various options for guests with different dietary requirements
  • The venue's type and location - make sure the location is accessible and provides everything your guests may need
  • The equipment you'll need for the event - it is crucial to always check in with your venue manager regarding the equipment the venue can provide you with
  • Entertainment options - dedicate time for breaks, perhaps even short games or music to make everyone feel comfortable, included, and satisfied

Why is it essential to include breaks and entertainment? Aren't conferences less casual events - ‘yes’ and ‘no’. It's crucial to remember that due to a variety of circumstances, including personal demands and attention spans, you cannot expect individuals to sit still for extended periods of time. This is not to argue that downtime during breaks is always wasted time. Here are some suggestions of ways to make the most of the time you have booked a venue while yet allowing for breaks:

  • Networking- We cannot emphasise enough the importance of networking, and conferences are especially prime occasions for getting out there and meeting people. Whatever the conference's topic, you can be confident that everyone in attendance shares your interests and/or work in a related field. Some downtime in between sessions will undoubtedly be welcomed by both you and your guests, and it will ultimately prove useful in the long term.
  • Open dialogue between guests and feedback- During the breaks, you can gather guest input that will be helpful after or even during the conference.
  • Types of entertainment you can include- you can include something a little out of the ordinary for a conference. You can include dance breaks, music breaks, a fun food-tasting period, games and activities. Or why not make the most of your breaks by working with other businesses and perhaps planning product testing for your guests. The possibilities are limitless. 

The idea is that breaks will give your attendees time to process the information presented during the conference, offer them the chance to discuss, network, and spread the word, and allow you to collect some quality feedback.

How far in advance should I book a conference venue in Soho?

Planning ahead as early as you can is always a good idea. By doing this, you can make sure that you have access to the best options for venues and other areas of event planning and that your planning process runs smoothly. We suggest booking a Soho conference venue at least three to six months in advance. If you are planning a very large conference for more than 200 we recommend booking your venue at least a year in advance.
