About King's House

This former billiard hall in the heart of King's Cross is an initiative of King's Cross Church. Split across two levels, the ground floor provides a hub for the local community and a range of specialised services, while the first floor is a flexible events space able to host both live and virtual events. With exposed brick walls, industrial windows and high ceilings, this blank canvas venue has been home to a variety of events such as live performances, conferences, private celebrations and more.

The 2000 sq ft room upstairs boasts a 200 seat auditorium capacity and full AV facilities suitable for presentations, music and even live streaming and hybrid events, making it a truly versatile venue adaptable to all types of occasions. This main area is joined by three smaller spaces (Luciana, Fleet and Saint Rooms) with capacities of 30 to 40 people, all equipped with a TV, sound system and microphone for use as breakout spaces or workshops. Whatever your reason for hosting, be it a conference, exhibition, training day or gala dinner, this room can be adapted to suit your needs. 

The experienced team is happy to assist with equipment set-up and ensuring all furniture is configured to your requirements. There will always be a minimum of one member of staff on site during your event and hire for over 80 attendees will also include a dedicated events assistant.

As a dry-hire venue, there is no in-house catering but King’s House does offer unlimited teas and coffees and access to the kitchenette for food prep and dishwashing. External catering is more than welcome should you require canapes, bowl food, or a seated meal. There are plenty of local companies that the team can recommend.

Do note that King's House does not currently offer hire for birthdays or Christmas parties at this time.

Great venue for our senior leaders meeting this week

Wonderful SpaceJULY, 2023

We used this venue for our most recent event and it was a wonderful space, in the heart of King's Cross. The tech provision is great and they helped us livestream the event via Zoom which ran pretty smoothly. The staff were incredibly helpful throughout the day and we would recommend hiring this venue!

Difference RLN Global

Conference and Award CeremonyJULY, 2023

We used this space for a one-day conference and awards ceremony. Such a great, beautiful, versatile spacer on a great location. We could use the main room for the conference programme, one of the side rooms for catering and the downstairs cafe for a drinks reception. It all worked really smoothly! The tech side works really well as well and they helped us stream the event on Youtube. The staff was so friendly and helpful. Would definitely use their space again!

The venue is a great space!FEBRUARY, 2023

We have used King's House for two different events now & both have been excellent. We first hired the venue back in summer for a corporate summer party, the venue is a great space & dry hire so you can provide your own drinks, food, DJ, music etc which is great. The second event was most recent we used the venue for a corporate live stream, the day was a success and everyone on the live stream was impressed with the filming & location. The staff are so helpful and are on hand to help out. A big thank you to Geddy & Sam.We look forward to hosting another event here in the future!
