About this space

Unfortunately, we currently have issues with the boat and currently moored far away from London. Hence, we are taking no bookings until the boat is brought back to London. Perhaps next spring.

The boat Lounge has a sliding roof and panoramic windows that give it a lovely airy feeling.

Our boat has an open-plan floorspace with kitchen facilities. The Lounge is big enough for a screen and a projector, and opens onto the large front deck. Ideal for small weddings/engagement ceremonies/part, Get-together, Lunch/Brunch/Dinner, Hen/stag or birthday party, Bridal Shower, or Baby Shower/Christening.

The interiors are painted in pale blue and white colours. It has laminated flooring and a solid industrial steel table and chairs. There are extra foldable tables and chairs available if needed.

-Location for the mooring will have to be pre-agreed
-We run events all year round as we have heating on the boat.
-The space will be transformed based on the theme and personalised
-The venue will be moored throughout booked events. It will not cruise whilst guests are onboard.

Totally amazing venue! Booked the floating showroom for a suprise hen party and it was the most magical party ever. Eli the host was so helpful with everything even decorating the boat in the perfect Halloween/wedding theme. There was plenty of space for 12/13 of us with room for a drinks/snacks table. Great kitchen facilities and sound system. Would

Nothing it was great!

Thanks again!

About Floaty McFloat Face

Unfortunately, we currently have issues with the boat and currently moored far away from London. Hence, we are taking no bookings until the boat is brought back to London. Perhaps next spring.


Our boat is spacious and airy with panoramic windows all around.
With its sliding roof open you can enjoy a wonderful sunny day on board. The lounge can accommodate up to 12 seated guests or a stand-up cocktail party.

It has a neutral but elegant and fresh décor, perfect for any pop up events, supper clubs, workshops and private small parties and team away days. Our front deck is a very relaxing space with beautiful views.
You are welcome to bring your own food, cakes and drinks. the boat provides kitchen and toilet facilities on board but please note facilities on BOATS are very simple. You cant plug in your own kitchen appliances (no microwaves).

We specialise in bespoke themed parties for adults and children, so we are well equipped with props, costumes, fairy lights, table decor, candles. Please ask for party packages.

There is a sound system you can just plug in your phone or ipod connection.

The Boat moors through from west to East of London in some of the most stunning scenery on The Paddington Arms, Regent's Canal of the Grand Union Canal and River Lea (Little Venice, Camden, King's Cross, Angel, The Broadway Market, Victoria Park, Hackney Wick, Springfield Park, Limehouse). Please discuss the location when booking the venue (we move every two weeks).

It's perfect for small birthday parties, Brunch or Dinner Party, Bridal/Hen parties, baby showers and supper clubs.
