About Venue

Unique. Out-of-the-box. Extra-ordinary. Welcome to The Mermaid London – the independent home of one-of-a-kind events, and the go-to venue for large-scale events in the City of London.

Five incredible event spaces and a capacity for nearly 2,000 delegates requires an expert team ... One that is dedicated? Yes. Experienced? Of course. Creative? Undoubtedly. Meticulous? It goes without saying. Passionate? Absolutely. All essential, and all characteristics that define The Mermaid London.

Our Newgate Suite is a fully flexible, modern conference, events and exhibition space, which features multiple interconnecting whiteboard walls for creative use, and can be divided into four meeting or breakout spaces: Aldgate, Bishopsgate, Cripplegate, Dowgate. Fun fact - we’ve taken these names from the original seven gates which date back to Roman times and were the only access points when a wall encircled the City of London.

MADE FOR EXHIBITORS
The Newgate Suite is designed to meet the needs of exhibitors, larger conferences and AGMs. With an expert team on hand to make sure all events run smoothly, we can offer you unparalleled versatility and support to ensure your event exceeds expectations.

Had our company's christmas event here. Spacious auditorium and backstage area where food & drink were served. Facilities were satisfactory and it is pretty easy to get to.

Quite easy to find. Accessible. 3 lifts. Decent toilets. Enjoyed my 2 day conference and training. From Blackfriars stn turn right then immediately right again. 60/80 Meters there's a small underpass

I have been here on a number of occasions for conferences. It's well equipped, things seem to run smoothly and provide everything that you would expect. The lunches are good and this time had gluten free options for mains, but not desert. The cookies at breaks looked delicious though no no gluten free choice, so I had to settle for healthy, fruit option. They really looked after my waistline! The staff are friendly and helpful.

The staff seemed to be intent on preventing delegates from doing things: e.g. "you can only have one type of food on your plate". Thankfully on the second day of the event this was no longer the policy. No coffee available at noon and nowhere to procure it on site (absolute showstopper for some of us).
