InterContinental London - The O2

Arora Ballroom is the flagship event space at InterContinental London - The O2, a luxury hotel on Greenwich Peninsula beside the River Thames. The venue is designed for large conferences, congresses, exhibitions, award ceremonies, gala dinners, corporate receptions and private celebrations.

The ballroom forms part of a dedicated conference centre measuring approximately 4,500 square metres. Its separate entrance and foyer create a self-contained arrival experience, making it suitable for event registration, guest welcome areas, sponsor displays and private corporate functions. The pillar-free format allows organisers to plan large-scale layouts with clear sightlines, branded production, stage installations, dining configurations and exhibition zones.

Alongside the ballroom, the hotel offers a broad collection of additional event spaces. Riverview Suites provide flexible breakout rooms, offices and meeting areas, with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Thames towards Canary Wharf. Other spaces support smaller meetings, private dining, receptions and hospitality functions, allowing organisers to combine plenary sessions with workshops, networking and food and beverage areas in one location.

The hotel’s events team can support organisers with room planning, catering, accommodation and event coordination. On-site dining includes restaurants, lounges and bars, while the hotel’s 453 bedrooms and suites provide convenient accommodation for delegates, speakers and guests. Private hire options are also available in selected restaurants and bars for corporate entertaining and social occasions.

With direct access to The O2 complex, strong transport connections and a prominent riverside setting, the venue is well suited to conferences, product presentations, company celebrations, weddings and high-capacity events in London.
