Why Hire
Double Down offers the flexibility of a large event space without the clinical feel of a conventional conference venue. Its industrial architecture, underground atmosphere and design-led interior create an immediate sense of occasion, while the open layout can be adapted around your particular event.
The venue is supported by an experienced hospitality team and a premium cocktail programme, making it especially well suited to events where the quality of the drinks and guest experience matters.
From the initial enquiry through to the final setup, we work directly with organisers to tailor the layout, bar service, food, entertainment and practical requirements. The result is an event that feels genuinely considered, unique and memorable.
