Summer venue The Walks launches with botanical showcase

Deloitte, Mediacom, The Stylist Group and Treatwell were some of the big names that attended the launch of summer venue ‘The Walks’ at Gray’s Inn along with 150 guests.

Nestled in five acres of leafy private garden and just five minutes from Chancery Lane tube, this contemporary structure is available now until 26^thJuly this year for daytime use for meetings and conferences as well as evening events for up to 1,000 guests. 

Head of business development Becci Thomson said “The Walks is the perfect summer addition to our portfolio. With the weather being typically English this year, the clear roof even makes the rain magical. It is truly a five-star space.”

Guests were treated to delicious Earl Grey and bergamot sours and ginger sage and rhubarb spritz cocktails alongside a selection of Italian inspired dishes including San Marzano tomatoes, burrata, olives and basil and summer squash gnocchi with rocket gremolata and lotus root by award-winning caterer CH&CO. Goers could also indulge in the hot street food stations choosing from vegan Indian dishes or Arabian style kofte and an airstream outside served barbeque ‘bones and dogs.’  

Sternberg Clarke provided the entertainment with Trinity, who played hits from Dua Lipa and Jess Glynne amongst others, while roving band She Wants to Move serenaded guests with a tune of their choice from The Beatles to the Spice Girls spiked with a few club hits.

Indeco Flowers created scented floral displays for the tables and a social media friendly floral arch, which was a big hit with the #walkintosummer on Instagram and Facebook.

Packages are competitively priced from £75. All events include full event management, security, staffed cloakroom, licenced bar, green room, attended luxury toilets, lounge, dining and garden furniture, ambient lighting, sound and light engineer, PA system, dancefloor and air cooling.

Next year’s dates are due to be released soon and organisers are advised to place enquiries before they all get snapped up.
