Description
The Ministry isn’t just a members’ club; it’s a place where ideas flow as freely as the drinks. Nestled in the dynamic neighbourhood of Borough, this converted Victorian printing factory blends modern design with a heritage twist. Our lineup of events keeps the energy high, from DJ nights that bring together South London’s music lovers, to live acoustic sets perfect for unwinding, and exclusive performances by emerging artists.
The Ministry features a mix of private spaces, each with its own distinct personality, making it a prime choice for corporate events, private parties, and social gatherings. For those after exclusivity, full venue hire is also available.
On the ground level, you’ll find our inviting Bar and Lounge, perfect for informal meetups or lively gatherings. A few steps away, The Garden provides a relaxed, open-air setting for anything from networking events to cocktails under the sky.
Head to the other side of the venue to The White Space, our largest and most adaptable room, ideal for brand activations and larger gatherings. This versatile setting accommodates up to 400 guests, with the characterful backdrop of simple white walls and the polished finish of modern design.
For more intimate gatherings, our series of meeting rooms deliver focused spaces with AV support, catering to creative brainstorms or board meetings alike. And with bespoke drinks and catering options—from day delegate rates to custom cocktails—every experience at The Ministry can be tailored to suit your vision.
