Description

This Victorian Grade II listed building was once a world famous fish market, running up until 1982. The Grand Hall, which now houses the market floor, and the basement, now The Vault, which is covered in 50 years of ice used to store the fishermen's catch. Given an industrial twist by Lord Richard Rogers, the building has undergone an amazing transformation, from the 19th century's largest fish market to London's premier event space.

 

The three unique spaces; The Grand Hall, The Vault and The Gallery, are available to be used separately or in conjunction with each other. As a blank canvas space the opportunities are endless!

 

The Grand Hall is our largest space, boasting a stunning triple-height ceiling and a feature mezzanine. The ornate sky-lit ceiling, together with The Grand Hall's magnificent proportions guarantee an inspiring first impression that guests will not forget.

The Grand Hall comfortably seats 1,200 for a dinner dance or can effortlessly accommodate a standing reception for 2,500 guests.

 

The Terrace makes for an unforgettable entrance with fantastic views. It provides an ideal setting for summer drinks receptions and is the perfect backdrop for photo and filming opportunities. Our riverside Terrace, included within the hire of The Grand Hall, offers unrivalled views of Tower Bridge, The Shard and HMS Belfast.

This iconic City setting, surrounding such a large exclusive outdoor space is a rare find in central London, working perfectly for wedding blessings, promotional vehicle displays, drinks receptions at sundown and photo-shoots alike.

Whether you chose to use The Terrace to house your main event or simply as an entrance to wow your guests, you can be sure the occasion will be one to remember.

 

 

The Vault is our hidden gem. It’s exposed brickwork and vaulted ceilings create a unique atmosphere that is in great contrast with The Grand Hall. The Vault’s Victorian architecure has been enhanced with an adaptable lighting, sound and AV design to offer a cool and contemprary event space. It’s ideal for distinctive sit down dinners, parties, conferences and it makes for an exceptional filming location. Concealed in the centre of The Vault is The Well, a contained space with high ceilings. It’s the perfect place to party!

 

The Gallery can be hired as an exclusive venue, perfect for fashion shows, stunning wedding receptions or made-to-measure exhibitions and conferences. Alternatively expand your event with additional break out spaces, a VIP lounge or a fabulous drinks reception. The light and airy space with arching white beams offers a sleek contemporary location, while the accompanying reception area has stunning river views. Two further 'break-out' rooms provide useful facilities for seminars or dressing rooms.
