One of the most important aspects of any press event is making the right impression. This all starts by making sure you’ve booked or hired the right venue. It needs to suit the occasion or event completely, and be a good foundation for creating the atmosphere you want.

You might be on the lookout for a traditional venue, a themed venue, a blank canvas venue, a dog-friendly venue (maybe?!). Whatever you’re looking for, we’ve picked out the best spaces for an event in East London*:
