Our event spaces have played host to an eclectic mix of events on numerous occasions, from conferences and tradeshows, exhibitions, product launches, fashion shows, photo shoots and filming, through to ground breaking ambient and experiential marketing.
From the stunning Grade II listed Boiler House, home to the landmark Truman Chimney, to outdoor spaces such as Ely's Yard, and our formidable Events Warehouse - F BLOCK - The Truman Brewery provides versatile and multipurpose event spaces and locations benefitting from heavy footfall and supported by a fine infrastructure of independent shops, bars, cafes and restaurants unparallel in London.

We have a top of the range Funktion One sound system, as well as staging and the ability to put on live music events.
