The best private party venues in Shoreditch

How do you know you’ve found yourself at a party in Shoreditch? Take it from us, there are a few clear giveaways: lots of local beers being drunk by guys in marketing, the room a flurry of frail wrists and fisherman hats. Expect exposed brickwork, exposed pipework and exposed roof rafters; the level of disdain for wallpaper in Shoreditch should not be underestimated.


So yes, a Shoreditch private party is, in part, a parody of itself. But if we’re honest, the heart of East London still manages to pull it off. So, with that in mind, we’ve collated some of the best Shoreditch venues that allow you to hire out a space to have your own private party in.

1. Shoreditch’s live music venue and blank canvas party venue: Village Underground

Shoreditch, London

Signified by the iconic twin overground carriages that adorn its ceiling, Village Underground is a unique, characterful space in the centre of Shoreditch which would make a striking party setting. The old victorian viaduct has been recast as a multifunctional centre and has a pedigree of event history under its belt.


The vibe is definitely industrial, with the viaduct’s brickwork and open ceiling giving you a really versatile canvas to project your perfect Shoreditch party onto. Capacity tops out at 720, which is more than enough for a truly memorable party.

2. An OG Shoreditch party venue: Queen of Hoxton

Shoreditch, London

Queen of Hoxton is so ingrained in the Shoreditch party landscape, it would a crime to miss it off this list. The multi-floor pub-cum-club-cum-rooftop bar is truly vast, with enough nooks, crannies and corners to accommodate any level of hedonism you might conceive.


Whilst the standard Friday and Saturday night Shoreditch circuit renders Queen of Hoxton pretty busy, off-peak times can see you hiring out many of the venue’s spaces. The rooftop, for example, can fit 300 people and is refurbished twice a year to accommodate a winter and summer crowd. Downstairs the standout space has to be the Discotheque, a neon-bathed basement dancefloor with its own bar and space for 100 budding Disco Stus.

3. An arts-focused bar for a great Shoreditch party: Colours

Shoreditch, London

Located on the quiet streets that enclose Hoxton Square, Colours is a stylish sunken bar that offers full hire for 175 guests. The menu features a range of beers, bottles and a decent cocktail selection which are all available to pre-order for your event. The food is headed up by caterers The Orange Buffalo and tends to feature very delicious things coated in very delicious sauces.

4. A beautiful venue for a garden party: Mama Shelter

Shoreditch, London

A party of 60 can make use of Mama Shelter's beautiful garden bar. The light and verdant space benefits from a retractable roof that makes it a great option come winter or summer. The decor of the party venue is all about chic wire and wicker furniture, with a stunning central bar proving the centrepiece.


Mama shelter is located just east of Shoreditch, just past Hackney City Farm. Of course, with the garden bar, you'll also be in proximity to the many other spaces Mama Shelter offers (including a karaoke room, a foosball table and their in-house restaurant).

5. A party venue in Shoreditch for gamers: Platform

Shoreditch, London

There is a slice of the demographic, holding a certain age and disposition, who will associate the term 'party' with a few things. Screen-scorched eyes, for instance, crumpled energy drinks and FPS waiting rooms, Turtle Beaches crackling with adolescent insults and hushed celebrations of bicycle kicks as dawn approaches.


Whilst the world may tell you to grow up and embrace the dinner parties and start googling 'wine bars', we're not like that. There is no shame in gaming, as the Shoreditch bar Platfrom expertly demonstrates. You'll find this video-game-centric bar on Worship Street, and it is packed with cross-console gaming booths, old and new, that allow you to kick, punch, shoot and jump your way to gold coin success.


Renting out the entire space is a great way to add a unique twist to your private party in Shoreditch. The entire venue has room for 100 party guests, with there being a good array of cocktails, beers and bar food available to keep everyone happy.

Research party venue options in Shoreditch

Begin your search for the perfect party venue in Shoreditch with thorough research. Use HeadBox to explore the options available. Consider factors such as location, capacity, facilities and ambience to narrow down your choices.

Define your party requirements and budget

Before selecting a venue, it's important to define your event requirements and budget. Determine the type of event you're hosting, the number of guests you expect to attend, and any special amenities or features you need. Setting a budget will help you narrow down your options and ensure that you find a venue that meets your financial requirements.

Understand pricing structures

Venue hire prices in Shoreditch can vary depending on factors such as the venue's location, size, facilities and length of hire. Some venues may offer hourly rates, while others may have minimum spend requirements or package deals that include food and beverage options. Review pricing details carefully to ensure they are within your budget.

Explore seating and set-up options

Consider the seating and set-up options available at each venue. Depending on the number of guests and the nature of your event, you may need different seating arrangements, such as banquet-style seating, cocktail tables or lounge areas. Choose a layout that encourages socialising and interaction among your guests while accommodating any planned activities or entertainment.

Evaluate amenities and facilities

Evaluate the amenities and facilities offered by each venue to ensure they meet your event requirements. Look for features such as audiovisual equipment, dance floors, catering services and bar facilities. Confirm that the venue can accommodate any special requests or equipment required for your event, such as stage sets or lighting rigs.

Check for additional services

Ask about any additional services or entertainment options the venue offers to enhance your event experience. Some venues may offer event planning assistance, DJ services, themed decorations or photo booths to create a festive atmosphere. Discuss your specific needs with the venue staff to determine what services are available and how they can be incorporated into your event.

Confirm logistics and set-up details

Once you've selected a venue for your event, finalise the logistical details with the venue's management team. Coordinate set-up and break-down times, access for vendors and deliveries, and any special room configurations or audio-visual requirements. Ensure that the venue setup meets your expectations and allows for seamless transitions between different aspects of your event.

Review contracts and policies

Before signing a rental agreement with the venue, carefully review the contract terms and policies to ensure you understand and agree to all terms. Pay attention to details such as the rental fee, deposit requirements, cancellation policy, liability waiver and any additional fees or charges. Ask the venue to clarify any uncertainties or concerns you may have before proceeding with the booking.

Planning a memorable event

On the day of your event in Shoreditch, arrive prepared and ready to deliver a memorable and enjoyable experience for your guests. Work closely with the venue staff to ensure that all logistical arrangements are in place, the set-up meets your expectations, and any special requests or requirements are met. Encourage guests to mingle, enjoy the facilities and create lasting memories in the heart of the city.

Hiring a party venue in Shoreditch offers endless opportunities to create memorable events and celebrations. By following the steps outlined in this guide and working closely with venue providers, you can ensure a seamless and memorable experience for you and your guests.
