Curzon Soho

Screen 1 (249 seats) costs £3,839 + VAT per slot Monday-Sunday, while Screen 3 (81 seats) costs £1,249 + VAT per slot Monday-Sunday. For daytime events pre-6pm, Screen 1 costs £3,000 + VAT for 5 hours or £4,800 + VAT for 9am-5pm full day hire. Evening slots (5:30pm-8:30pm or 8:30pm-11:30pm) are priced per individual slot, with doubled pricing if you need both evening slots.

Exclusive bar hire costs £300 + VAT per hour for up to 250 people standing. If you only need a section of the bar for up to 100 people standing, this costs £150 + VAT per hour. The bar area serves as breakout space and is ideal for networking sessions, receptions, and corporate gatherings alongside your screen hire.

All screen hires include use of the screen and projector, up to 3 handheld wireless microphones, and technical support. Content must be delivered in DCP format 72 hours prior to your technical rehearsal. If you have another format, conversion costs £500 + VAT, and there are additional fees for late delivery or missed technical rehearsals.

A mandatory technical rehearsal is included with every hire, typically lasting 30 minutes to 1 hour depending on your event complexity. This takes place at 10:30am on a weekday prior to your event day to test laptops, film content, and ensure everything works properly. You must book this at least two weeks in advance as slots fill up quickly.

For drinks, they recommend budgeting £6 per person per drink for their standard self-service selection of house wine, prosecco, beers, and soft drinks. Cocktails, G&Ts, and hard seltzers require pre-ordering. In-house catering covers tea, coffee, breakfast items, pizzas, and light bites, while external caterers handle more complex requirements. All orders must be placed 2 weeks ahead to guarantee staffing and stock.

Weekend slots are structured around four specific time periods: 12pm-3pm, 3pm-6pm, 6pm-9pm, or 8:30pm-11:30pm. Each slot is priced individually, so if you need multiple consecutive slots, the price doubles accordingly. Weekday bookings offer more flexibility with options like 9am-5pm full day hire or custom 5-hour pre-6pm slots.

Curzon Soho offers a comprehensive branding package that includes use of the canopy or readograph, takeover of all quad posters throughout the venue, and branding on digital screens. This package appears to be included with event bookings, providing excellent visibility for corporate events, product launches, and branded screenings.

The venue gets very booked up, particularly for technical rehearsals which must be confirmed at least two weeks ahead. Some periods show limited availability - for example, they had no availability for the rest of one year when contacted in what appeared to be late in the booking cycle. It's advisable to enquire well in advance for your preferred dates.

The venue can accommodate specific accessibility requirements, but these must be communicated as soon as possible during the booking process to ensure proper arrangements can be made. Screen 1 features a stage area, making it particularly suitable for presentations, Q&As, and award ceremonies requiring elevated speaker positioning.

For presentations, they can connect your laptop directly to the projector and recommend using 16:9 ratio full-frame presentations to properly fill their screens. They provide lecterns, director's chairs or high stools for seated panels/Q&As, and can accommodate presentation clickers (which you must supply). The venue advises avoiding borders or text/images on extreme edges of presentations.
