New Meta Gaming Arena, Private Hire Ground Floor

About Venue

New Meta Gaming Arena is a purpose-built gaming and esports venue in Islington, minutes from Angel station, available for exclusive corporate and private hire. Behind a striking storefront on Upper Street sits a full competitive setup: [30+] high-spec gaming PCs, a dedicated 5v5 battle arena, console stations, sim racing rigs, and soundproof streaming booths with greenscreen and live production capability.
It's a space built to do things a standard function room can't. Host a team away day or company social with a live tournament and big-screen finals; run a product launch or brand activation with full broadcast and streaming; hold a networking evening, press day or filming shoot. Our in-house team handles the tech, the format and the production so you don't have to bring in a single extra supplier.
The venue can be hired in full or in part, for half-days, full-days or evenings, and we offer catering, a licensed bar, security, filming and dedicated event management as add-on services. Whatever the event, our team builds it around your brief.
