As you might imagine, rooftop parties during the summer months are all the rage. This includes both rooftop setups with umbrellas and more covered and glass-enclosed spaces in case of sudden showers. Those looking for a space to host a work party are also in luck, as many places in Covent Garden are set up for cocktail parties with finger foods and standing tables for mingling. If more casual relaxation is your preference, kick up your feet at some of the more outdoorsy places near the river, where lounge chairs and tropical drinks make a good combination to the summer weather. 

Covent Garden is relatively dense with a lot going on with plenty of great summer party venues. You can’t go wrong with the area around the Embankment tube stop or just across the bridge near Jubilee (if you feel like going a bit further) for some lovely riverside venues. The Leicester Square tube stop is also a vibrant hub for summer parties in Covent Garden, especially as you head west towards Piccadilly Circus or southwest towards St James.
