About this space

The Main Room is the primary event space at Red Arch. It’s an open room that can be arranged in different ways depending on the type of event. The space works well for corporate socials, networking events, product launches, team celebrations, live music, and private parties.

The room includes a cocktail bar, a sound system, and a DJ booth, along with seating that can be moved around as needed. This makes it easy to set the space up for standing receptions, presentations, workshops, or more relaxed gatherings with drinks and music.

I hosted a birthday party here for ~40 people and it was so great!! the staff were so friendly and accommodating, helping the evening to run smoothly. They had great communication, let us play our own music and were quick to reply. We all had a lovely evening, there’s a great atmosphere in there and drink options are great prices are reasonable :) would definitely recommend!
