Kings Place Events

What Kings Place Events does

Kings Place Events is a purpose-built conference and events venue in King's Cross, London, operating since 2008 as one of the first buildings opened in the King's Cross regeneration area. The venue offers ten event spaces, including two auditoriums (Hall One with 400-delegate capacity, Hall Two with 200), the canal-side Battlebridge Room with private terrace, multiple meeting rooms, exhibition space, and Rotunda Bar and Restaurant, all overlooking Regent's Canal.

The venue operates a fully integrated service model: catering is provided in-house by Green & Fortune (the parent company and B Corp-certified caterer), with beef and lamb sourced exclusively from its own Corneyside Farm in Northumberland, providing full farm-to-fork traceability. Production and technology services — including live streaming, recording, broadcasting, dynamic lighting, and bespoke microsites for hybrid events — are managed by a dedicated in-house production team. IT infrastructure includes a Ruckus Wi-Fi system supporting 400+ concurrent connections. The venue holds a BREEAM Outstanding 95% sustainability rating, the highest operational score for property management in the UK.

Kings Place Events generates revenue through venue hire, bundled catering, production and AV services, and restaurant operations, sold via a direct B2B sales team targeting corporate conference clients, event agencies, media and broadcast organizations, and social/celebration customers. Pricing is project-based with packaged rates (e.g., £80+VAT per delegate for small meetings, bespoke quotes for weddings and large-scale events). The venue has won multiple London Venue & Catering Awards across 2019-2025 and is positioned as a premium, sustainability-led venue in central London with excellent transport connectivity.
