Wembley Stadium , perhaps the greatest stadium in the UK. The very name of which stirs the soul of any football fan. This great landmark was reopened in 2007 after being reconstructed on the site of the original stadium, built in 1923. Contained within the hallowed walls of this sporting pilgrimage site, are some truly spectacular contemporary events spaces - the exclusive Wembley Suite, the Bobby Moore room, the Great Hall, two signature

We live and breathe venues at Hire Space , so when we get the opportunity to showcase a truly fantastic one we grab it with both hands. So, last month we headed over to the Crystal with some of our clients for networking and an opportunity to show-off how the venue can be transformed for events. A building known for its angular, hyper-modern design isn't one you'd perhaps associate with an afterno

Google, Ben & Jerry's, Hilton and L'Occitane are just a handful of the impressive and diverse clients that the musical virtuosos at Storm DJs have worked with in the past. Both corporate and private events usually need a little something of the musical variety to provide a soundtrack to the evening. A birthday party may need a compilation of pop and hip-hop music to usher guests onto the dance floor, and some deep house once th

If you'll excuse the corny pun, Fabric has been part of the fabric of London nightlife ever since its original opening in 1999.

Camden's unmistakeable Shaka Zulu is certainly not for the faint-hearted. From the décor of 20-foot warrior statues and carved wooden murals to the quirky menu of crocodile and springbok, it's definitely not your average, run-of-the-mill venue. The biggest South African restaurant in London is, after all, set over 27,000 square feet. The no-holds-barred feel is mesmerising as you're surrounded by fiery orange hues, and furnishings reflecting

It's always humbling and necessary for us at Hire Space to be reminded of the charity-minded origins of the company, whereby our co-founders sought to find out-of-hours uses for educational spaces. So it gives us much pleasure to introduce venues such as the Queen Mary University Students' Union , which is a wonderful venue for various event types

You may have read the first instalment of our A to Z of Events. You may not have. But that's OK – this is not one of those "If you haven't seen the first season of Game of Thrones you won't follow the rest"-type things. As long as you've learned the middle section of the alphabet (and mastered that tricky L/M/N/O/P part), you're good to go. Here is the second part of our guide to everything venue-

On entering Town Hall Hotel , you'll immediately be struck by the compatible marriage of Edwardian and Art-Deco styles – a result of its original establishment as a town hall in 1910 and its further development in the 1930s. You may catch a glimpse of the resident pets, a rescue greyhound named Dizzy and a cat called Cheeseburger. You'll see the bric-à-brac of quirky furnishings in the foyer: the Union-Jack-printed chair and the antique c
