The Ministry–a refreshing take on corporate events

Looking to plan a corporate event that feels a little less… corporate? The Ministry offers something different, without compromising on the essentials. 

Tucked away in London SE1, just a short walk from Borough and Waterloo, The Ministry is a converted Victorian factory that blends character with functionality. This is not just another blank space—it is a stylish, fully equipped venue designed with experience in mind. 

Whether you are organising a boardroom meeting, workshop, conference or brand activation, the spaces here work hard so you do not have to. There are five distinct areas, including The White Space, a striking room that lives up to its name, a spacious bar and garden, three high-spec meeting rooms, a private fitness studio, and a reception lounge that is ideal for post-event drinks or networking. 

The Ministry offers a refreshing take on corporate events

Each space offers its own identity, yet together they form a smooth journey for guests—ideal for full venue takeovers. The interiors reflect the building’s original use, with exposed brickwork, natural textures and curated furnishings that add character without taking over. 

The Ministry is set up for business. High-speed Wi-Fi runs throughout the building. On-site AV and adaptable lighting are built in. There is a dedicated events team on hand to make sure everything runs to plan, from the first walkthrough to the final wrap-up. 

Food and drink can be as simple or as standout as you like. The Ministry works with a network of trusted suppliers and caterers, offering everything from coffee and breakfast through to working lunches, sharing plates and cocktail receptions. There is even the option to create bespoke drinks. 

You can hire individual rooms or combine spaces depending on your numbers and goals. Capacity ranges from 12 for a board meeting to over 200 for a standing reception, giving you the freedom to scale your event without losing atmosphere or impact. 

What sets The Ministry apart is the balance it strikes between design and practicality. It feels elevated but still accessible. Stylish but not overdone. With flexible layouts, built-in tech, and a team that knows how to deliver, it is a space that is easy to work with and leaves a lasting impression. 

If you are looking for a venue that is just as good for strategy sessions as it is for celebrating wins, The Ministry is well worth considering.
