We had such a wonderful time here celebrating such a special milestone. From the moment we arrived, the entire experience was absolutely lovely. The staff were brilliant so welcoming, attentive and genuinely kind throughout our visit. A special mention to the evening team of Wednesday, who were incredibly understanding and accommodating. Their kindness really made the evening even more enjoyable. The kitchen team were simply outstanding. Every dish was beautifully presented, almost too pretty to eat, and the flavours were absolutely incredible. You could truly tell how much care and attention had gone into every plate. What made the evening even more special was the thoughtful gesture of gifting me a small cake to celebrate my graduation. It was such a sweet and unexpected surprise, and I genuinely appreciated it. Thank you to the whole team for making such an important celebration even more memorable. We left with full hearts, happy memories and, of course, very satisfied taste buds! I would absolutely recommend this place and would happily return again.

When you're looking for a place to host your graduation party, the options in London are endless. There are so many types of venues to choose from: bars, function rooms, terraces, gardens, basements—even whole venues! And we haven't even gotten to vaults and rooftops yet. You can also choose between indoor and outdoor settings depending on what type of weather you're hoping for (we recommend indoor if you're expecting rain). Whatever kind of venue you're looking for, we've got it covered!
Here are some ideas for what to include at your next graduation party:
- Drinks: Everyone loves a good drink, so make sure that you have plenty of options on hand. You can ask the guests in advance if they have any allergies or restrictions so that you can keep everyone safe and happy. Some great drinks include wine coolers, beer, champagne, some fun cocktails and whatever else you decide to get!
- Food: Food is also an important part of any party. You don't want your guests to go hungry, so make sure there is plenty of food available for everyone to eat throughout the night. You might want to consider having a buffet-style setup with multiple stations where people can pick up their favourite foods without waiting in line too long.
- Entertainment: The entertainment doesn't have to be anything fancy—just something fun for people to do while they're waiting for food or after their meal has been digested enough, so they feel comfortable getting up from their chairs again (that's usually when the best conversations start happening anyway). For sure don’t forget about the DJ or some live music to keep everyone dancing!
Here are some ideas for your next party:
- Classic Graduation Party Theme: This theme is perfect for those who want to keep it simple and classy. It's all about black and white, with hints of gold and silver. You can decorate with balloons in the school colours, and maybe even have a photo booth where guests can take pictures as they graduate!
- School memories: If you're looking for something more fun than classic, this is an awesome option! It's all about celebrating your favourite school memories at this party! You can have games centred around school subjects like English or maths (there are tons of websites that offer printables), or just have a fun time drinking and dancing the night away!
- Sports Party Theme: If you love watching sports with your friends then this is definitely the theme for you! Make sure that everyone knows ahead of time, so they can dress accordingly—maybe even wear their favourite team's jersey or hat!
- Back to the 90s: You could do a '90s party—so many people love the music, TV shows, and movies from that decade. Or maybe you want to take it back even further: '80s style is also super popular right now!

Verified Reviews of Graduation Party Venues in London
I had the pleasure of hosting my sister’s graduation at Simplicity and honestly, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! It was a self catering event, and we had access to literally everything: plates, utensils, machines, AC, sound system… literally everything! We also had the freedom to move the tables and chairs around however we wanted, which was so helpful when setting up the space. Nicoletta and her partner were sooo accommodating from the moment I expressed interest right through to after the booking. They were so lovely, helpful and made the whole process so easy. I would definitely recommend Simplicity to anyone looking for a great venue!
we celebrated my graduation party with Clippers lounge and it was absolutely amazing! The staff was extremely attentive, we had cakes delivered, and they were able to pick them up store them. They brought out the food in a timely manner, and the bar service was incredible. Could not recommend this venue enough!
The owner was very accommodating and helpful from start to finish. He allowed me to view the venue beforehand, answered all my questions, and assured me everything would run smoothly on the day – and it truly did! The venue itself was fantastic, and my guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves. The staff on the night were exceptional—friendly, attentive, and always willing to help. Andrew was also present throughout the evening, ensuring everything was going well and that my guests and I were having a great time. I appreciated his hands-on approach and his efforts to make the event stress-free. I loved that we were allowed to bring our own cake without any additional fees, which was a lovely touch. The DJ booth was excellent, and everything ran smoothly, ensuring the night was filled with great music and vibes. Many of my friends commented on how much they liked the venue, with some even enquiring about hiring it for their own events. All in all, The Alaska Waterloo is a brilliant venue with amazing value for money, an incredible team, and an owner who genuinely cares about creating memorable experiences for his clients. I would definitely recommend this venue and will be using it again for future events.
Joshua is the kindest, biggest-hearted owner and I cannot thank him enough for making my party a huge success. We had a real problem with the external caterers and Joshua went out of his way to save the day for me - collecting items at the last minute. He and his team worked tirelessly to ensure we had an unforgettable event. I cannot rate him highly enough! He was hands-on and so kind and respectful to me and my family. The venue has also recently been extended, which was an added bonus for me to accommodate my guests. Fantastic Joshua - highly recommend!
Brilliant. Brilliant. Brilliant. I had the most amazing time thank you to all the staff at Bar Soho especially Mia, Rashan and Ashley. Any issue we had which was few was resolved swiftly, staff were absolutely lovely had the best time ever. Gio at the bar was amazing. A lot of my friends were asking about the venue as well so I’m sure we’ll be back again.
I hosted my graduation dinner for 90 guests at the Westminster Boating Based on 20th July 2019. It was truly a magical day. One of many reasons I chose this venue was because it had a lot of natural lighting but on the event day the team exceeded my expectations with the service. The catering staff were extremely professional and attentive with all my guests. My guests loved the canapes, there was a continuous flow of canapes for the reception and the guests loved the terrace where they were able to chat and enjoy the fabulous view. The event team and Cherie the lead Manager were open to so many of my ideas, I had a harpist play music during reception and dinner, Zumba instructor for the disco, 2019 balloons and other decors that I wanted to add. The dinner food was absolutely delicious and I was able to do a food tasting months before hand. Drinks were flowing aswell. The Maestro was a great addition to the event, it helped to provide order and inform guests of where they should go. The DJ is very dynamic, he mixed up the songs and got everyone on the dance floor. Overall, the team are extremely experienced and flexible. I would highly recommend this venue for all and any event.
Great very central location! The dialogue with the Marquis Cornwallis was very straight forward and they catered to all our small requests. The menu was priced very competitively for London standards with plenty of choice and flexibility for special dietary requirements. The food was delicious and especially the typical hearty British pub dishes and desserts were delicious. The staff was extremely friendly as well!
