Looking for a large and versatile venue in East London? Tobacco Dock is located near Wapping and offers 16,000 square metres across its two levels, with 57 different event spaces that are available for individual hire or in combination to create your perfect venue.
There's galleries, speakeasies and bars galore, with options for indoor and alfresco spaces - truly something no matter the occasion. All spaces here boast a contemporary feel, contrasting the historic surroundings of the region that seep through into the venue. Tobacco Dock dates back to 1812, yet it retains a cool and bustling feel, from its eye-catching docks entryway to the iconic pirate ship that sits at the entrance.
Different spaces are bound to work depending on your event. Planning a summer party? Why not check out The Rooftop? Here you can host up to 600 guests, with drinks packages, street food and lawn games to seal the deal. If something more conference-like is on the cards then The Dock Gallery is a slightly smaller location for up to 250, offering day delegate packages with the option to dry hire the space. Elsewhere, the Quayside Bar or the Dock St Bar could both work as a space to gather your nearest and dearest for a drinks reception.
The entire venue can accommodate up to 2,500 guests, so there's no need to keep the guest list short if you're organising a larger event. Whatever event requirements you might have, to personalise your event, then be sure to get in touch with the team who will be there to guide you throughout the planning process. At Tobacco Dock you can also work alongside the in-house catering team to create bespoke menus for your event, with both vegan and vegetarian options available, as well as onsite mixologists to ensure that there's plenty of booze to go around.
