Roundhouse

Roundhouse is one of London’s most iconic event venues - a Grade II* listed landmark where industrial heritage, music history and contemporary creativity collide.

Originally built in 1846 as a steam-engine repair shed, its distinctive circular structure has since become synonymous with music, performance and culture. From legendary performances by Jimi Hendrix, Pink Floyd and Patti Smith in the 1960s and 70s to its £30 million redevelopment and reopening in 2006, the Roundhouse has continually reinvented itself while retaining its unmistakable character.

With its extraordinary circular architecture, exposed ironwork and huge Main Space, the Roundhouse is a spectacular setting for awards, gala dinners, conferences, brand launches, fashion events, parties and immersive experiences.

And it holds a special place in our founder Jay’s heart. More than a decade ago, it was one of the very first venues he worked in, delivering some career-defining events - from The Beach at the Roundhouse and the Wella Trend Vision Awards, to three Creative Circle Awards and a two-week showcase celebrating BMW’s centenary.

A true inspiration throughout his career, we’re delighted to now bring The Ripe Avocado to the Roundhouse, creating distinctive, culturally-inspired catering for events in one of London’s most legendary spaces.

“Some venues just stay with you. The Roundhouse has been part of my journey for more than a decade, so bringing The Ripe Avocado here feels like a particularly special full-circle moment. I’ve had some incredible experiences here over the years, and I’m really looking forward to creating new memories and experiences here with our team and our clients.”
