78 Bishopsgate
Venue Info
Hidden among the modern towers of the City of London, 78 Bishopsgate – St Ethelburga’s Centre is a unique historic venue offering a surprisingly peaceful setting for corporate events, meetings and private entertaining.
At the heart of the venue is the Nave, an impressive space featuring high vaulted ceilings, original medieval arches, stained glass and beautiful stonework. The historic architecture is complemented by contemporary facilities, creating a distinctive setting for conferences, presentations, workshops, dinners, receptions and product launches.
One of the venue’s biggest attractions is its secluded courtyard garden, a genuine hidden oasis in the Square Mile. The garden is complemented by a permanent Bedouin Tent, providing an unusual additional space for smaller meetings, breakout sessions and informal gatherings. Together, these spaces make 78 Bishopsgate particularly appealing for summer receptions and events where guests can move between indoor and outdoor areas.
The venue is also home to the St Ethelburga’s Centre for Reconciliation and Peace, an independent charity, giving events held here an additional sense of history and purpose.
