83 Rivington Street

Located in the heart of Shoreditch, 83 Rivington Street is a large-scale, industrial-style event space set across a series of restored Victorian railway arches. Positioned on one of East London’s busiest streets, the venue combines raw character with full production capability, making it particularly well suited to brand-led events, product launches and high-energy corporate experiences.

Spanning approximately 9,000–13,000 sq ft, the venue is designed as a flexible, fully brandable environment. The space is split across three primary arches — each with its own bar, AV and sound infrastructure — alongside a substantial outdoor garden and terrace. These spaces can be hired individually or combined, allowing events to scale from intimate gatherings through to large-format takeovers of 500+ guests.

The layout is intentionally “blank canvas”, with exposed brick, high ceilings and adaptable zoning that supports a wide range of formats — from exhibitions and immersive activations through to parties, live performances and dining-led events. The venue operates primarily on a dry hire basis, giving clients full control over catering, production and design, with in-house infrastructure already in place to support delivery.

Key features include:

• Up to 500–750 guests standing (full venue depending on configuration)

• Three interconnected Victorian railway arches

• Large outdoor garden / terrace (approx. 2,900 sq ft)

• Fully brandable, blank canvas environment

• Multiple bars, commercial kitchen and back-of-house facilities

• Integrated AV, lighting and Martin Audio sound systems

• Dry hire flexibility with full supplier control

The combination of multiple arches, outdoor space and a true blank canvas setup allows events to be built around a concept rather than forced into a fixed format. It’s particularly strong for brands and clients that want impact — whether that’s a product launch, immersive experience or large-scale party — in a part of London where creativity and energy already come built in.
