1. A 600-seat City of London auditorium for conferences and large-scale events: The Mermaid London
Blackfriars
The only auditorium of its kind in the City of London, The Mermaid's centrepiece space seats 600 and carries the kind of acoustic and sightline credentials you'd expect from a venue that started life as a theatre — the first built in the City since Shakespeare's time.
The stage is genuinely large-scale: think car unveils, full orchestras, or major brand moments. Full AV production is handled in partnership with Rockit Event Production, while Seasoned provides catering across the venue's five event spaces. For larger programmes, the adjacent River Rooms offer Thames views — Tate Modern, The Shard, and Shakespeare's Globe among the skyline — accommodating receptions, dinners, and breakout sessions for nearly 2,000 delegates across the full venue.
