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 Origami themed party includes:
-venue hire 3 hours
-props and the venue decor
-workshop for up to 14 children using scented paper
fresh chicken bites, chips and veg or freshly made sandwiches
-Goody Bags optional £2 per child extra

The origami workshop is thoughtfully designed to trigger the senses and imagination with the scented paper, colours, textures and different types of papers sheets. It is inventive, educational and fun for all ages. This workshop is a great inspiration to learn Japanese art of paper folding. We use beautiful scented paper. Each workshop can have a theme: spring flowers and hearts, dresses, animals etc.

The venue is transformed into a magical paper wonderland. It is always thoughtfully designed and personalised, using good quality materials and a hand-made scented paper. We also have other themes available like Mermaids and Pirates, Alice in Wonderland, Flower power, Vintage Tea party for girls, Baking party, Outer space, and sewing.

We can accommodate up to 12-14 children and up to 5-6 adults. Minimum group bookings of 10.
Location for the mooring will have to be pre-agreed
We run events all year round as we have heating on the boat.
I can help you plan ahead and discuss all teh details to make it a memorable and very special for your child and his friends and family.

Staff was very friendly,attentive and helpful. Kids loved the concept of Origami. It was not very spacious but enough for about 12 kids and 3-4 adults. As they can fold tables and can make space. Took food from home and managed to warm up there as they have gas hob and oven... Overall good experience and okay to have once for different experience.

Location wasn't very great but we ignored and enjoyed there.

There was lots of food & cake which went down well. Had dithered about catering but very glad I booked it. Even had fresh broccoli. Elizabeth is very talented & was very patient with the girls. They loved the scented paper. All the girls raved about it to their parents. I would highly recommend Eli & her boat.

Well I can truly say that they helped me create a beautiful memory for my 8year old daughter. Incredible entertainment with a unique and beautiful venue


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.
