About Venue

Located in Camden, The Roundhouse is one of London's most iconic event venues, housed within a spectacular Grade II* listed former railway engine shed dating back to 1847. Combining industrial heritage with world-class production facilities, the venue offers an extraordinary setting for conferences, award ceremonies, product launches, gala dinners, exhibitions and exclusive corporate events. Its distinctive circular architecture and rich cultural history create an unforgettable backdrop for events of every scale.

Following a major redevelopment, The Roundhouse has become one of the capital's most versatile event destinations, offering over 2,500 square metres of flexible event space with exceptional lighting, sound and production capabilities. The venue's blank-canvas design allows complete creative freedom while retaining the dramatic character of its original Victorian structure.

Situated between Chalk Farm and Camden Town, The Roundhouse benefits from excellent transport links while occupying one of North London's most vibrant cultural locations, making it a popular choice for major corporate events and brand experiences.
