The Space

Tobacco Dock is a community for the ideas generation. London’s quarter for live events and expos; Tobacco Dock has a history in new world commerce and can trace its spirit of entrepreneurialism back to 1811.

Equidistant from London’s financial district, Greenwich and the Tower of London world heritage site and Tech City, Tobacco Dock marries flexibility with progressive spaces against an architecturally significant backdrop. The dock has played host to many of the UK’s leading events and awards for start-ups and FTSE-500 companies as well as exhibitions and live performances.

Capitalising on its industrial origins, event spaces are pared back and stylish and can offer quayside views, natural daylight and an outdoor environment amidst one of the capital’s most technologically advanced IT infrastructures. In-house catering prepared daily by Tobacco Dock Food champions small-batch, seasonal produce sourced from local suppliers.

Tobacco Dock was recently voted London’s Best Awards Venue by the Global Conference Network in recognition of its service excellence and exceptional quality. The venue has proved to be a catalyst for helping grow footfall and market share for trade and consumer events, underlining its premise as a place where people congregate and ideas are exchanged.
