About Venue

Located beneath the Victorian railway arches of Cannon Street in the heart of the City of London, The Steel Yard is a striking industrial event venue offering flexible space for conferences, awards ceremonies, product launches, receptions and large-scale corporate celebrations.

Extensive in-house lighting, sound and LED production technology allow organisers to create highly immersive experiences, while multiple bars, VIP areas and flexible staging provide exceptional versatility.
