Room Hire
Halls and Meeting Rooms for Hire
We are currently open for bookings, although availability is limited.
We are an arts & community centre located in Islington, 5-10mins walk away from Angel Tube Station. Our 3-floor building was built in1907 by what became the United Reformed Church. In 1998, Claremont Project, a charity originally founded by that church, became responsible for the entire building. The building has been through extensive refurbishment in recent years, the most recent works were completed in Spring 2020, when, after months of heavy and loud building works (!), most of our ground floor was refurbished and given a fresh new look.
Our centre offers a range of spaces available for hire for a variety of classes, workshops, performances, rehearsals, meetings and so on. We have three large halls and two meeting rooms available for hire. Our halls are very spacious and bright due to natural daylight and are suitable for a mix of events due to their large dimensions. All our spaces are wheelchair accessible and there is free WiFi available.
Please note, we generally only take community-oriented bookings and we do not accept bookings for receptions or parties.
More information about our halls and rooms can be found in our information pack that you can download here: Space Hire at Claremont
