Camp and Furnace

What Camp and Furnace does

Camp and Furnace is a privately-held, single-site live events and hospitality venue located in Liverpool's Baltic Triangle district, operating from a 35,000 square foot Georgian warehouse at 67 Greenland Street. The venue comprises three distinct event spaces — two 1,200-capacity rooms (Camp and Furnace) plus a cabin-culture Lobby Bar with a wood-burning stove — and hosts 250+ events per year spanning live music (tribute acts and touring performers), Bingo Lingo (a branded bingo-plus-nightclub format), themed quiz nights, day parties, club nights, and live sports screenings. Underlying event technology consists of in-house production capabilities including PA systems, lighting rigs, projection, and adaptable warehouse layouts, with no proprietary software platform or digital product disclosed.

The company generates revenue through three primary streams: (1) consumer ticketed event sales distributed through third-party platforms Skiddle and See Tickets, (2) private venue hire for corporate events, weddings, and film/TV shoots with Classic and Twilight packages priced from £3,000 to £7,000 depending on day and package, and (3) food and beverage sales including bar services and street food vendors, with drinks packages at venues such as weddings priced at approximately £7 per glass. Enterprise customers include Google, BBC, Pepsi, Red Bull, Matalan, Zurich, and Comic Con for corporate event hire. Marketing is concentrated on the company's own website, organic social (160,000 followers across platforms), email, and earned media via 1,400+ five-star Google reviews. Distribution for ticketed events is routed through Skiddle and See Tickets; corporate and wedding bookings are closed through direct sales. Headcount is reported at 11–50 employees, and the company is independently owned with no disclosed investors, funding rounds, or parent company. Founded in 2012 per firmographics (with some source materials citing 2015), the venue has operated continuously for over a decade and is positioned within Liverpool's creative and cultural regeneration corridor.

Regional players

• Sound City Liverpool: Liverpool music festival and events brand programming live music across multiple venues. Comparable as a regional live-music promoter, though the model is festival-led rather than single-venue-led.

Direct peers

• Electric Brixton: Large London warehouse event space hosting live music, club nights, and private hire. Comparable in scale (1,400+ capacity) and event programming to Camp and Furnace's Furnace space.
• Constellations: Liverpool Baltic Triangle warehouse venue hosting live music, club nights, and private hire. Directly comparable as a competing warehouse-style multi-format events space in the same micro-market.
• Concorde 2: Brighton live music and club venue running ticketed events and private hire. Comparable scale and event mix, serving as a benchmark for a UK regional live music venue outside major cities.
• Invisible Wind Factory: Liverpool arts and music venue operating in an industrial/warehouse aesthetic with live music, club nights, and event hire—closely mirroring Camp and Furnace's format and target audience.
• Brudenell Social Club: Long-established Leeds live music and events venue with a strong independent programming identity. Comparable as a mid-sized regional music venue with a similar mix of ticketed events and venue hire.
• Village Underground: London warehouse venue combining live music, club nights, art exhibitions, and private hire in an industrial aesthetic. Comparable format and revenue mix, though operating in a larger and more competitive London market.
• Phase One: Liverpool-based warehouse events venue running live music, DJ events, and private hire in a similar industrial-chic setting; competes for the same promoter and event-goer base.

Broad incumbents

• Academy Music Group: Owner-operator of UK O2 Academy venues and other live music spaces. Relevant as the broader incumbent in the UK mid-sized live venue category that anchors promoter relationships and touring economics.
• O2 Academy Liverpool: Established mid-large live music venue in Liverpool operated by Academy Music Group. Overlaps on live music programming and corporate/private hire but is part of a national venue chain with broader touring infrastructure.
