About this space

A multi-level warehouse-style venue with an industrial interior, open floor areas and a strong sense of scale. Its defining character is the combination of exposed structure and warm, contemporary lighting.

Design: A multi-level industrial interior combines exposed steelwork, visible services and a high warehouse ceiling. Warm overhead lighting balances dark structural finishes and open, practical floor areas.

Features: A dance floor supports social use, while a PA system and speakers accommodate music and announcements. The venue has Wi-Fi, air conditioning and step-free access, plus accessible toilets. Hosts can bring their own music or DJ, subject to noise restrictions.

Ideal for: Large groups seeking a lively, informal setting for standing gatherings and music-led celebrations.

What sets it apart: A large illuminated central bar creates a clear focal point within the open industrial setting.
