Why hire a rooftop venue in London?
London's skyline is one of the most iconic in the world, boasting the second highest number of skyscrapers of any city in Europe. That means that, wherever you are, you stand a pretty good chance of having the likes of The Shard, the BT Tower, or The Gherkin posing humbly in the background of your shots.
Nothing represents the power and importance of a global city like its towering buildings, and being on top of one allows you to lean into this urban excitement, without the confines of the busy streets below.
Hiring a rooftop venue in London also allows you to film, photograph or perform outdoors whilst still maintaining a level of privacy and seclusion. London can be a hectic city, and trying to find open outdoor spaces can be a heavy task, especially when youโre trying to avoid noisy neighbours.
Organising street closures or simply trying to maintain a sense of intimacy can be difficult, but rooftop venues provide a quiet, distraction-free environment for all kinds of events and projects.
For filmmakers and photographers
Rooftop venues provide a unique vantage point for filmmakers and photographers who want to leverage cinematic backdrops for their photography and film footage.
From West Side Story to The Matrix, some of cinemaโs most iconic scenes have been filmed atop city skyscrapers - everything is more dramatic when youโre several stories above ground, and this can really play into your favour as an artist.
Rooftop venues also offer you an abundance of natural light. This can reduce the need for lighting equipment, and provides a soft, flattering effect that helps maintain an authentic and naturalistic look to your photography and film footage.
For musicians, performers and events
If you're a musician or performer, hiring a rooftop venue for an intimate gig or music video performance can be an excellent opportunity to capture some stunning content to promote your art.
From Eminem to Nelly Furtado, countless musicians have leveraged the cinematic nature of rooftops to elevate their music videos. Itโs difficult to compete with the dramaticism of standing hundreds of feet above ground and staring out at the city like a superheroโฆ
Rooftop venues also provide the ideal space for film screenings, product launches, and other exhibitions and events. Their private, secluded nature gives you the unique opportunity to host an outdoor event without the expected noise and distractions of ground-level spaces.
The vast range of rooftop venues across London allows you to select a space that aligns with your specific creative needs.
