Due to the fact there are so many shows being performed in London, London has many thriving and equipped vendors to accompany you in producing a successful event in an auditorium! Let’s take a look at some of the components that we should consider before booking an auditorium space.

• Printing Service
  Perhaps you’re using an auditorium space for a presentation or a meeting. In that case, locating a printing service to create pamphlets of your presentation would be helpful. This helps people bring something home to remember your presentation by. London has many printing services spread across the city, many of which are actively reducing their carbon footprint.

  Whether it's for a business meeting or a conference, hiring a projector will come in handy when explaining a presentation. For performances, these projectors can also be used to present accompanying videos and other visuals.

• Catering
  Food is an optional provision in some events, but it is always appreciated by everyone attending. Who doesn't love to eat? Some simple catering on the side that offers finger foods, snacks and drinks keeps guests satisfied and helps them stay within the auditorium for a longer time.

  If you're hiring an auditorium for theatre or performances, then check out the local costume or designer shops around London.
