Summer at Old Billingsgate (Exclusive use) (Old Billingsgate, London EC3)

Old Billingsgate is an extraordinary and unique venue, situated in a prime position on the River Thames with views across to Tower Bridge, London Bridge and the South Bank.

It is a fantastic clear open space combined with modern architecture making it the perfect venue for all types of corporate and private events. The elegant nineteenth century Grade 2 listed structure will comfortably hold 2,400 people for a buffet and 1,100 for a seated dinner and allows a large space for stage sets and entertainment.

Availability

The Ultimate Experience are pleased to announce that they have Old Billingsgate Market available during Summer 2010 for private summer events. Ideas for how this magnificent space will work are:

The Reception Area

If the weather is warm, an outside reception is possible on the venue’s private terrace. Reception drinks can be served in this area, which would be enclosed by a traditional white picket fence with wooden garden furniture and lush green plants completing the feel.

Should the weather be cooler the east arch of the main hall will be used as the reception area. Gentle atmospheric lighting along with a large bar and poseur tables will fill this area. The mezzanine level is available for a VIP reception, additional dining space or a chill out / games area.

There is a choice of areas to match a wide choice of events to include:

  • BBQs
