Woolwich Works

Woolwich Works is a multi-purpose event venue in the historic Royal Arsenal, beside the Thames in Woolwich. Its restored buildings bring together distinctive heritage character and adaptable spaces for organisers planning private, corporate, community and cultural events. The venue can host everything from a smaller meeting or celebration to a large-scale gathering, with options for exclusive hire of individual rooms or a wider building takeover.

Spaces include the Fireworks Factory, Knight Gallery, Beanfeast, Coopers Studio, Stitchers Studio and the adjoining Stonecutters and Ropekeepers Studios. The outdoor Workers' Yard adds a courtyard setting for summer parties, receptions and events that benefit from an indoor-outdoor layout. Different rooms suit conferences, meetings, performances, rehearsals, wedding receptions, private parties, product launches, filming and community activities. Capacities and facilities vary by space, so organisers can discuss layouts and requirements with the events team.

Woolwich Works can also help organisers explore catering and other event suppliers, with approved providers listed by the venue. Seasonal packages are available for celebrations such as Christmas parties, while bespoke arrangements can be discussed for other occasions. The on-site café and bar provide additional hospitality options, depending on the event and booking.

Located close to Woolwich Arsenal pier and within walking distance of Woolwich stations, the venue is accessible by public transport and connected to the wider London area. Organisers can enquire directly with the events team about availability, room suitability, catering and event support. Its combination of flexible event spaces, a notable riverside setting and dedicated hire enquiries makes Woolwich Works a practical choice for planners seeking a distinctive venue in south-east London.
