About this space
Dark, loud and built for spectacle, The Box is the room that made Ministry of Sound famous. The 285 sq m space has a balcony looking down over the floor and screens set into the overhead lighting rig, giving cameras light, depth and movement straight away. The in-house tech team can programme the rig to your shot list, and the sound system is ready for live performance. Shoot a packed-out gig, a moody music video or a slick commercial, with prep and wrap days bookable subject to availability.

About this venue
Ministry of Sound has been in Elephant & Castle since 1991, and the same building now hosts events of every kind. Hired as a whole venue, its six connected spaces hold up to 1,550 guests, so an event can move from drinks in The 103 to a keynote or dinner in The Box and on to an after-party without leaving the building. One of the UK’s most advanced sound and lighting systems runs throughout, with an in-house production team on every booking. Ideal for conferences, awards, product launches, filming, and summer and Christmas parties.
