About this space

The self-contained open-plan Chapel can be configured or transformed to meet the most exacting briefs. With a mirrored rear wall and hardwood floors, the space is the perfect canvas for creative expression of all kinds, from performance art to product launches. There is capacity for 80 guests, with custom bleacher-style seating for 60. The Chapel has a range of generous branding opportunities and includes high spec AV as standard as well as a dedicated onsite manager, to support the event from initial enquiry to clear-up. When booking the Chapel full access to The Speakeasy is included.

Hidden beneath The Chapel, The Speakeasy provides a spectacular addition to the main event space. Guests are invited downstairs to the contemporary maximalist-designed space on the ground floor via the staircase or lift. The Speakeasy is most commonly utilised for drinks receptions, breakfasts, lunches and networking. Here, attendees can enjoy self-serve tea and coffee, a private booth, a built-in cloak-room and full exclusivity for the duration of the event. Both spaces must be booked together and are not available individually.

With a commanding entrance opposite Holborn Underground Station, WeWork’s Aviation House enjoys a prime position in central London, moments from Covent Garden. This Grade II listed building with Edwardian Baroque style marries vintage European design with a sleek, modern event environment. Exclusive use of the two floors, and a private entrance, means the venue can be transformed to create bespoke events and experiences for up to 80 guests.

The space is divided into two floors, each designed for a variety of hires. The Chapel and its grand entrance lends itself perfectly for presentations, panel discussions, conferences and off-site meetings. The Speakeasy styled lower ground space is the perfect space for a dedicated catering space in conjunction with The Chapel.
