How much does it cost to hire an outdoor venue in London?

A lot depends on how the venue charges. On our current listings, a small Soho terrace for around 40 starts at a £500 minimum spend, a 110-guest games terrace asks for £2,800, and an exclusive terrace for 150 asks for £7,000. For day hire, a Marylebone venue for 220 starts at £750, and the big King’s Cross rooftop and terrace hires run from £6,750 to £7,750 a day. Some spaces are price on request.

Can I book a rooftop or terrace for just my group?

Some are exclusive hire and some are shared with the venue’s other guests, and exclusive hire usually costs more, through a bigger minimum spend or a higher day rate.

Can someone find an outdoor venue for me?

Yes. Our business events team will take a brief for a corporate event, negotiate rates with suitable venues, and send you one document comparing the offers, so you don’t have to chase them yourself.

How far ahead should I book an outdoor venue in London?

Summer evenings go first, so start looking at least a few months before your date. Midweek and shoulder-season dates (May and September) are easier to get at shorter notice.

Introduction to Outdoor Venues

London outdoor venues, from team drinks on a terrace to a 250-strong rooftop party

A team celebration of around 40 is well served by a small terrace attached to a bar, and plenty of those work on a minimum spend. A company summer party of 100 to 150 is where games terraces and hotel courtyards earn their keep, because there’s room to spread out and something to do besides stand around with a drink. And if you’re taking over a rooftop with the skyline behind you, the best spaces go up to around 250 standing. That’s the one to book early, because everyone else wants it too.

Where you look changes who turns up. King’s Cross is a good call when guests are coming in by train, with a main-line station on the doorstep and some of the bigger rooftop and terrace hires nearby. Covent Garden suits smaller central drinks, Paddington and Euston work well for guests travelling in from the West and the Midlands or North, and Wembley and South East London are worth a look if you want room to spread out away from the centre. Over in the City and Spitalfields you’ll find outdoor terraces with games for a more relaxed team do, and Chelsea and Battersea have courtyard and hotel terraces for something more polished.

If the outdoor space is the main event, see our summer party venues in London, or for something more relaxed, garden party venues in London.

Planning something a bit different?

For a wedding, start with wedding venues in London, and for after-work drinks on a terrace, try drinks reception venues in London. Looking outside London? We cover outdoor venues in Manchester, Birmingham and Edinburgh, and the full outdoor venue hire list covers the rest of the UK. To compare everything in one place, browse all London venues.

I worked with Marie to source a venue for a 2 day work event. She was very professional and efficient and found us a great shortlist of venues of which we booked one. It was excellent and a great recommendation. Great job Marie, thank you!

Deirdre

As we’re remote workers without much direct knowledge of the area, Megan at Venuescanner really saved us with some great suggestions that all met our brief but had enough differences to help us evaluate the best ‘vibe’ for our event. Megan was always there to cater to our evolving brief and was a great coordinator between us and all the other services she recommended. We’ll definitely work with VenueScanner again.

Angus Knight Group

Marie was amazing helping us to source amazing event spaces for 5 leadership summits at TikTok. She was super helpful, took the burden of us sourcing and negotiating deals and super responsive and always on top of everything! I love the service venuescanner provides and we will be definitely be using them again!

Aaron Lawder

I was so pleased to run across VenueScanner as our organization was looking for a place to host our 50th celebration. Jess made the process so easy, asked what our needs and wants were and also found us the perfect location that was within our budget! As small nonprofit this is a great service, I highly recommend them, and we will use them again in the future.

Debbie

Kate was lovely and so helpful in finding us the perfect venue for our conference this year. This is the 2nd year that we have used Venue Scanner and yet again they took the stress out of trying to find something that suits our growing business.
