TRANSPORT

Canary Wharf is an area in East London located on the Isle of Dogs. One of the major business hubs of London, Canary Wharf is, unsurprisingly, a popular choice for events such as conferences, meetings, and corporate dinners. With its modern architecture, fantastic transport links, and thriving business culture, it has become a central hub for elegant event venues. For example, East Wintergarden is a stunning option for large events, as well as Pergola on the Wharf for post-event networking.

Canary Wharf has a long history dating back to the late 19th century, when it was primarily used as a port for ships to dock at. Fun fact: the area gets its name from the stream of fruit-carrying ships from the Canary Islands! In addition to its event offerings, Canary Wharf is also home to the Museum of London Docklands, which chronicles the history of the docks and their impact on the city, and is a stellar choice for business events.
