Features: The Archives includes Wi‑Fi and air conditioning, an on-site PA system and speakers, and permission for external DJs and own-music playback. The space is wheelchair accessible and served by accessible toilets.

Ideal for: Corporate teams or creative groups seeking an intimate setting for seated presentations or relaxed standing receptions.
