The Dark Arch at Peckham Arches

About this space

This space is highly versatile and can be used for all sorts of events such as private dining, Christmas drinks parties, birthdays, film screenings, workshops, networking and talks.

The room opens up onto the large heated and covered terrace, ideal for a pre- or post-networking space to enjoy food and drink or a business lunch. A large screen can be rolled out onto the back wall and the whole room can be completely blacked out and privatised. There is an aux cord so that you can play your own music, and DJ's will be playing outside throughout the evenings on weekends too so you can dance the night away. Lots of natural light can also flood into the room through the large glass double doors.

PA system, TV, and microphones are available. QR codes can be opened on the tables so that guests can order food and drink during the event.
