About Venue

Located on the South Bank overlooking the River Thames, London City Beach is one of the capital's largest outdoor summer event venues, transforming a prime riverside location into a vibrant urban beach complete with real sand, tropical styling and flexible event infrastructure. Purpose-built for corporate summer parties, conferences, team building days, networking events and exclusive venue hire, the venue offers a unique festival-style atmosphere in the heart of Central London.

Designed to combine outdoor entertaining with professional event facilities, London City Beach features covered marquees, beach bars, cabanas, activity areas and adaptable event spaces that can be branded and configured for a wide range of corporate occasions. From daytime conferences that transition into evening celebrations to large-scale company festivals and hospitality events, the venue provides a memorable alternative to traditional event spaces.

Situated on Upper Ground between Waterloo and Blackfriars, the venue enjoys exceptional transport links while offering panoramic riverside views and easy access from the City, South Bank and West End.

Event Spaces

The Beach

The Beach forms the centrepiece of the venue, featuring imported sand, deckchairs, beach huts and tropical styling to create a relaxed environment for summer parties, networking events and corporate hospitality. The space can be fully branded and customised for private events.

Riverside Marquee

The covered marquee provides a weatherproof event space overlooking the Thames, making it ideal for conferences, presentations, awards ceremonies, dining and evening entertainment. Integrated production facilities allow seamless transitions between daytime and evening events.

Beach Bars

A collection of themed bars is positioned throughout the venue, providing flexible hospitality points for receptions, networking and private events. Premium drinks packages and bespoke cocktail menus can be incorporated into corporate functions.

Activity Zone

The outdoor activity area offers space for team building games, beach sports and interactive entertainment, making it particularly popular for company away days and summer festivals.

Exclusive Venue Hire

Exclusive hire combines the entire beach, marquee, bars and activity areas into a single event destination capable of hosting large-scale corporate events with multiple entertainment, catering and networking zones.

Facilities and Services

London City Beach offers integrated audiovisual support, staging, lighting, high-speed Wi-Fi, multiple bars, festival-style catering options, BBQ packages, street food concepts and dedicated event management. Flexible indoor and outdoor layouts, branding opportunities and team-building activities allow organisers to create bespoke corporate experiences, while production teams support event delivery from installation through to breakdown.

Location and Access

Located on Upper Ground on London's South Bank, London City Beach is within easy walking distance of Waterloo, Blackfriars and Southwark stations, providing excellent transport links across the capital. The venue is accessed at ground level and supplier loading can be coordinated in advance for event build and breakdown. Nearby public car parks are available, although the venue is ideally reached by public transport due to its central location.
