More about Summer Party Venues in London

Summer is the perfect time to celebrate with friends, family and colleagues. And what better place to do it than in London? The city offers a wide variety of summer party venues, each with its own unique charm and features. So whether you're looking for an outdoor space with a scenic view or an indoor venue with great amenities, there's sure to be a venue in London that matches your needs perfectly. Here's all you need to know about finding the perfect summer party venue for your next event.

Types of summer party venues in London

If you're looking to host a summer bash, there are plenty of great options to choose from in London. Here are a few of our favourite types.

Rooftop bars

One popular option for summer events in London is to hire a rooftop bar. Rooftop bars offer a great opportunity for guests to soak in the summer sun while often enjoying stunning views of the city. This makes them especially perfect for corporate summer parties that are centred around drinks and canapes or private dining.

Arguably our all-time favourite is the Rooftop Terrace at Century Club. The largest in Soho, it can accommodate up to 180 people, boasts a large bar and best of all has a fully retractable roof! So, even if the heavens open, you'll still be able to enjoy this stylish bar in all its glory!
