Top Events for London Warehouses

If you're searching for a warehouse or a large event space within an industrial-style building for a particular party or shoot, then Giggster's 36 venues are here to help.

Weddings – Industrial Chic Themes. Not everyone wants an enchanted fairytale-style wedding. The minimalist industrial look in a warehouse that gets a lot of natural light has a lot of appeal, especially in the modern era. A dark wall or two is excellent for bridal photo shoots where the bride can stand out.

Corporate Events – Large Event Spaces. We all know that when it comes to sheer size, a warehouse unit makes for an excellent event space. Host a cocktail dinner or charity fundraiser for your company in a sprawling space with enough room to set up a dance floor and get the catering staff to pass around delicious appetizers.

Birthday Parties – Unique Vibes. Whether you celebrate on the date of the birthday itself or over the weekend, it's so much more interesting to rent out a railway arch taproom or underground event space rather than just take your friends and family to a regular old restaurant.

Photo Shoots – Interesting Backgrounds. There's nothing that works so well as contrasts, like high-end couture against the blank, empty, industrial background of a warehouse. With these sprawling, closed-off venues, you don't need to worry about security even if you're working with celebrities.

Filming – Dark and Gritty Settings. Take into account what the venue is offering before you start filming. Is it a bright and open space which has large windows and gets lots of sunlight or is it a dim, dark atmosphere more suited to scary movies? You'll need to arrange for lighting and camera equipment accordingly.

Essentials for a Warehouse in London

Planning a London event in a warehouse venue? There are some features and amenities that you simply have to keep an eye out for!

What kind of ambience does the space have? This is relevant, no matter if you're planning a company event or a bridal photo shoot. Take the time to examine the space, whether it has a signature worn-down and derelict look or it's all clinical white walls and lights.

How many people will fit? The best thing about warehouses is that they can fit a lot of people. You really don't need to worry about your cast and crew but in the case of a grand party, you might want to check out the capacity of the venue.

Does it have the necessary amenities? Places like warehouses don't typically come equipped with much but toilet facilities and proper lighting are a must!

Advantages of Renting a Warehouse in London

As with all cities, London has its own set of pros and cons. Before you book any event space in London, take into consideration how well a warehouse in London will work for you.

Advantages

• If you need the space for filming purposes, you've already got an advantage in that most London warehouses won't have a problem fitting a large cast and crew.

• London used to be a very important commercial centre so old, historic warehouses easily come by in the city. And they provide a lot of personality to your event or shoot.

• The public transportation in London is one of its big boons. No matter where the venue is and where you're staying, getting around London isn't an issue!

Disadvantages

• Warehouses themselves come with the disadvantage that they're vast empty spaces. You'll have all the hassle of furniture rentals and equipment rentals to deal with.

• In London, you need to take the weather into perspective. While warehouses are covered spaces, transporting all equipment in the London rain can be challenging, especially without a car.

• Sometimes these warehouses might be located in what are now residential areas and there might be rules and noise restrictions.

How to Plan a Warehouse Event

Planning a night of constant fun? But you've never done anything like this before and don't know where to start. Don't worry—being organised actually goes a long way!

Select a Concept – This could mean anything from coming up with a theme for the party, such as the '70s-era disco, to writing out a storyboard or concept for your photo and video shoots!

Check Out the Venue – The best thing about this kind of event space? Just how versatile it is. But seeing pictures of it is one thing and seeing it in real life so you can plot out your shots or your decor is another thing!

Arrange for Equipment – Since these sorts of venues don't come equipped with much, you'll not only have to hire tables and chairs, but you'll also need to make very sure that there is enough light so people don't trip.

Partner with Creatives – An easy way to promote your event for free is by partnering up with social media influencers. But since food and cake are a big part of any event and even a film shoot, you can also work out deals with caterers and bakers.

How to Save Money on a Warehouse Rental in London

Just because you're planning a grand, over-the-top party doesn't mean that it's crucial to empty out your bank account.

Decorate the space yourself.

Did you know how thoroughly transforming a few handmade flowers and bits of confetti can be? If you want to save money, you've got to put in some time and effort. But the results will be so worth it!

Hire what you don't have.

And yes, this includes basic amenities like lighting, chairs and tables as well as camera lenses and grips. It's London—there are all kinds of rentals available. You don't need to buy brand-new stuff just for this one party or project.

Be clever about the food.

One easy trick is to serve appetizers by passing them around. This gives your party classy vibes while guests are likely to eat less. You can serve cupcakes in various flavours instead of a huge tiered cake!
