BEST SUMMER PARTY VENUE 2021
Dartmouth House
Dartmouth House has a rich history, and the building has evolved over the decades. Dartmouth House is the most exceptional venue for summer parties, boasting one of London’s rarest and endearing features, an enclosed courtyard for hosting open-air reception. The fountain, architectural style and wrought iron tables and chairs transports you to a French Châteaux providing a unique al fresco setting. You won’t find outside space like this anywhere else in London. A stunning oasis in the heart of Mayfair, perfect for canapé and drinks receptions, summer parties and post meeting summer receptions. Live music is wonderful addition to the courtyard, creating a magical space for guests to soak up the atmosphere and relax.
Regent’s Conferences & Events
The extensive versatility of Regents’ outdoor space for summer parties is undeniably unique in the centre of London, just seconds away from the bustle of the city, balancing convenience with gratefully received seclusion.
From initial brief to seamless delivery, the vast outdoor space with four acres of landscaped lawns, together with the Secret Garden, gives the events team the best, most authentic marketing tool they could need, which paired with exceptional customer service and work ethic, ensures our top clients keep coming back. Giant inflatable assault courses, petting zoos and eclectic entertainment options keep innovation at the top of our summer party agenda.
Skylight
One of London’s most imaginative bars, Skylight is an outstanding location for a summer party. With beautiful 360° views of the distinctive financial district’s skyline, which are handily at just the right angle for jaw-dropping sunset gazing, and stylish, colourful design, this is a venue with a major impact.
Our croquet lawns and pétanque courts offer guests a fun way to socialise and to get competitive, while award-winning cocktails and vibrant street food oil the party wheels. There are plenty of options to create a bespoke experience, such as DJs, photo booths, Brazilian barbecues and silent discos.
With a full capacity of 600, we offer both full and shared hire to fit all sizes of party. We offer competitive party packages and our team will work with clients to make the event their own. There are plenty of covered seating areas and heaters, should the weather be unkind. We have a pergola on our level 10, which can accommodate 200 people. Meanwhile, our garden booths on the top, mezzanine level provide relaxed and comfortable seating. Our large level 9 is completely covered and also boasts its own indoor croquet lawns so rain won’t stop play!
The Garden Room at Middle Temple
The Honourable Society of the Middle Temple, widely known and referred to as Middle Temple, is a heritage venue, displaying one of the finest examples of an Elizabethan Hall in the country. It is also the home of one of the newest event spaces in London, The Garden Room.
This beautiful new venue is available for exclusive hire at weekends and during the evening (at specific times of the year). The space can host receptions for up to 240 guests and dinners for up to 120 and has a built-in dancefloor. The Garden Room has been designed with smaller meetings in mind too, with four sound-proof booths and a large board room.
The Garden Room also boasts an outdoor terrace, which overlooks the beautifully manicured lawns that lead down to the Thames. Here, you will find seating for up to 50 guests. The venue is perfect for cocktail receptions and BBQs for 300+ guests.
Income from the hire of Middle Temple’s event spaces supports the Honourable Society of the Middle Temple scholarship programme. In 2021 £1.25 million was awarded in scholarships. Middle Temple believes that everyone should have the chance to pursue a career in law, regardless of their background.
The Kia Oval
Our new stand is one of the most significant and exciting developments in the history of Surrey County Cricket Club and The Kia Oval. The new development has increased the ground’s capacity to 28,000 and, more significantly, increased our conference and events facilities by a staggering 4,000sqm with 600 seated dinner capacity or 750 theatre style in just one room.
The two large purpose-built event spaces have double height ceilings of 6m with rigging points as well as a wall of windows with amazing views over the pitch, bathing the rooms in natural daylight. In addition to this the two spaces also have private access on two private covered terraces.
After holding its first dinner in June 2021, this brand-new event space has already hosted a variety of events from conferences to wedding receptions and will continue to host fabulous events moving forward.
