The Steel Yard
Recently opened in London, The Steel Yard is situated underneath two of Cannon Street Station’s Victorian railway arches, and while not underground, it has an underground feel – guests can expect to be able to hear the trains from above.
The venue has a capacity of 350 standing guests, or 200 for sit-down events. It has a 1am license and is complete with in-house catering, a staffed bar, front-of-house and cloakroom facilities and venue security as well as full technical production facilities.
