Distinctive. Unconventional. Unforgettable.
Welcome to The Mermaid London – the independent venue for truly one-of-a-kind events, and the City of London’s top choice for large-scale experiences.

At the heart of The Mermaid London is its show-stopping 600-seat Auditorium – a space like no other in the City. Originally built as a theatre – the first to grace the Square Mile since Shakespeare walked the streets of Blackfriars – the Auditorium remains a standout. It’s spacious, classically designed, and fully equipped with cutting-edge tech. With superb acoustics, uninterrupted sightlines, and a stage that can host everything from cars to orchestras to major brand launches, it’s a conference centrepiece that delivers impact.

The River Rooms bring an entirely different kind of magic. With sweeping views of iconic London landmarks – from Tate Modern to The Shard – they’re ideal for AGMs, gala dinners, and private celebrations. Meanwhile, the versatile Newgate Suite is built for flexibility:

  • 4 rooms, reconfigurable with movable walls

  • 27 exhibition stands, easily accommodated
    Whether for networking, showcasing, or team collaboration, this space adapts effortlessly.

The Mermaid London works hand-in-hand with Rockit Event Production and Seasoned event caterers to craft tailored experiences that are seamless, stylish, and above all, unforgettable.

With five dynamic event spaces and capacity for up to 2,000 guests, you need a team that’s more than capable. You need a team that is:
Dedicated. Experienced. Creative. Meticulous. Passionate.
These aren’t just qualities – they’re the essence of The Mermaid London.

So whether you’re planning a high-impact conference in the City’s only 600-seat auditorium, a prestigious awards evening framed by skyline views, or a strategy session in a fully modular space, The Mermaid London offers the venues, the people, and the vision to bring every idea to life.

No two events are the same – and at The Mermaid London, that’s exactly the point.
