Skyloft is the perfect London venue for stylish corporate entertaining. Able to both reflect your brand and offer an unimposing space for a chic reception, this party venue encapsulates the entire top floor of The Millbank Tower and boasts some of the best views in London, whilst also offering the ultimate loft apartment style events space.
Originally designed as a venue for the corporate market during the 2012 Olympics, the sporting influence in the interior design of this venue is everywhere – revealed at first in the unusual wooden floor, which was reclaimed from a gymnasium in Edinburgh and adds real texture plus the odd splash of colour to the room. The eye is then drawn to the exposed brickwork, which was taken from a crumbling old Manchester cotton mill. This is all brought together by steelwork and exposed wooden beams, and decorated with vintage British furnishings, making this a really unique and interesting space.
A huge wraparound bar is certain to keep your guests happy, and the chance of queuing for a drink is eliminated just due to the sheer size of the thing! Five 60″ plasma screens also offer you the chance to display the images of your choice throughout the event, and of course, allow you to make any presentations. In fitting with the 21st century feel of the place, a wealth of lighting options also awaits you here. Colours, bright white, candlelight and even just daylight are just some of the choices you can make, and certainly gives Skyloft the edge in terms of personalising and customising the space – ideal for bespoke events.
Food and drink are also well taken care of. 270 people can be seated for a meal here, while up to 600 can enjoy a standing drinks and canapé reception. The only compromise is that there is no outdoor space. Too high up for a balcony and a long way down in an elevator to the courtyard outside, smokers will most likely be a little disgruntled. However, the detailed interior of this venue is bound to keep your guests wanting to stay inside all night. Not to mention the incredible views (booking this venue for New Years’ Eve would be just amazing – talk about a view of the fireworks!), the walls here are lined with classic retro British Pop Art, and paired with the atmospheric lighting and top quality sound system, Skyloft creates a wonderful environment for a stylish party.
