About this space

Our main floor includes a full DJ setup, a professional lighting system, and space for up to 400 people standing, making it well suited to large parties, receptions, and launch events. If you need a seated layout, we can host up to 150 guests, and the large wall-mounted LED screens work perfectly for talks, presentations, or private screenings.

There’s also a cloakroom, a mezzanine level, and a 7×7-meter bar to keep guests comfortable and taken care of, whatever you’re planning. The venue sits just off Sackville Gardens and is an easy walk from both Piccadilly and Oxford stations, as well as the St Peter’s Square tram stop.
