The Venue
Our legendary live venue, which has hosted global superstars including David Bowie, Kate Bush and The Rolling Stones, and staged sell-out runs from comedians Michael McIntyre and Billy Connolly, has revealed a new high-tech flooring system which is now available to book for a diverse range of events, from awards ceremonies, private parties and film premieres to cutting-edge product launches, conferences and fashion shows.
Our modular floor can be installed overnight to transform the perfect
sloping view for watching gigs into a split level flat floor, ideal for
seated dining events for up to 670 guests or a standing reception for
up to 1500. The auditorium also has the capacity to seat 3300 theatre
style for conferences or screenings and our art deco foyer area with its
original features is the perfect space to host a drinks reception or an
after show party whatever the event.
