Event space for rent, booked by the day rather than leased by the year. Companies use these spaces for conferences and seminars, product launches, press days, training sessions, offsites and client entertaining, in cities across the US, the UK and Europe.
Two things make an event space near you different from phoning a hotel or a conference center. The rooms are not purpose-built function suites: they are rooftops, galleries, lofts, showrooms and former shops, so they already look like somewhere before you have spent anything on making them look like somewhere. And the commitment is the dates you book, with nothing beyond them.
Most bookings are confirmed inside 24 hours. Search by date and capacity at the top of this page, or pick a city from the list below.

Event space rental, explained
What you can book, and for how long
An event space here is booked, not leased. A booking can run for a single day, a weekend or several weeks, and nothing commits you beyond the dates you pick. That covers most of what a company actually needs a room for: a conference or seminar, a product launch, a press day, a training session, an offsite, a client dinner, an awards evening, or a shoot that needs more floor than a studio gives you.
The spaces are not conference centers. They are rooftops, galleries, lofts, showrooms, restaurants and former retail units, which is why they tend to look like somewhere rather than nowhere. In the UK the same thing is usually called venue hire, and it works the same way.
What an event space costs
Rates are quoted per day in most markets, and per week once you are staying longer. Treat the figure on a listing as a starting point, because four things move it more than anything else.
Location. A ground-floor space on a busy street costs more than an upper floor two streets back, in every city, by a wide margin.
Capacity. Price tracks the number of people a space is licensed to hold far more closely than it tracks floor area.
Dates. Weekday daytime is the cheapest window almost everywhere. Evenings, weekends and anything in the run-up to Christmas are not.
What you need from it. Tables, chairs and a sound system in the room cost less than hiring them in. A bare space can still be the cheaper option overall, but only once you have priced what you would have to bring.
Then budget for what sits outside the rental: staffing, insurance, catering, and any audio and video you are not inheriting from the space. Those are arranged separately and they are frequently the larger half of the total, so price the event rather than the room.
How quickly you can book
Most spaces can be confirmed inside 24 hours. Send a request with your dates and headcount, the host replies with a quote, and you pay to confirm. There is no viewing cycle, no agent and no lease to negotiate, which is the practical difference between booking a venue and renting one.
Last minute succeeds more often than it fails, particularly midweek. If your dates are fixed and your location is not, send the request to several spaces at once and let availability decide it.
Choosing the right space
Start with what the event has to do rather than with a floor area. A launch needs a frontage and a street that carries people past it. A training day needs daylight, power and a room that does not echo. A press day needs a backdrop that photographs well, which is why galleries and showrooms take so much of that work.
Then narrow by city. Each city page lists what is bookable there and filters by capacity, date and the kit already in the room.
The city list above covers the rest of the cities.
FAQ
Can I rent an event space for one day?
Yes, and a single day is the most common booking. Daily, multi-day and weekly rates are all normal, and the shortest useful booking is usually a full day rather than an hour.
How far in advance should I book?
Four to six weeks is comfortable for a weekday event in most cities. Book earlier if your dates fall in September or October: those are the two months when demand for corporate space peaks, so the good rooms go first.
What is included in the rate?
It varies by space, so the listing is the answer rather than a general rule. Tables, chairs, Wi-Fi and basic lighting are common. Catering, staffing, security and a full audio and video rig usually are not, and the host will either quote them separately or point you at a supplier.
Do I need my own insurance?
Usually yes, and most hosts ask for public liability cover for the dates you have booked. Sort it early, because it is the single thing most likely to hold up a confirmation.
What is the difference between an event space and a venue?
Nothing useful. In the US the term is event space, in the UK it is a venue and the act of booking one is venue hire. The product is the same and so is the search.
Can I brand the space?
In most cases yes, and a good number of spaces are deliberately plain so that you can. Check the listing for what can be fixed to walls, what can be moved, and what has to be back as it was when you leave.
