About this space

Aures London is an immersive arts and event venue characterised by a minimalist, gallery-style interior that prioritises visual installations and flexible layouts.

Design: The main space is a long, tunnel-like volume with a low arched ceiling, plain light-coloured walls and dark flooring; finishes are minimal and slightly industrial. Coloured event lighting is used to change the room's appearance and keep furniture layouts unobtrusive.

Features: Aures London provides a built-in PA and speaker system and permits external DJs or your own music source. On-site bar and staffed cloakroom facilities are available during events. The venue also includes Wi‑Fi, air conditioning, a step-free guest entrance and full wheelchair access.

Ideal for: Promoters and creative teams seeking a mid-sized, visually focused space for standing, social and performance-led gatherings.

What sets it apart: The venue includes wraparound 4K projection surfaces paired with a multi-channel 3D audio system to deliver fully immersive audiovisual presentations.

What guests say: The venue's visual projections and sound system receive consistent praise for their impact. The bar and cloakroom operate smoothly and front-of-house staff are generally friendly, although occasional issues with security conduct have been reported.

Cool location, excellent space. Extremely well kitted out, AV-wise. Helpful event manager, extremely competent AV staff.
More clarity on pricing up front - there was some confusion around the need for added extras.

Like the venue and how flexible it was. The space was adaptable and perfect for us. The staff were also really helpful the whole way through and on the night.
The only problem was that external caterers needed a kitchen facility which they didn't have so we had to limit the food options.
