Conferences & Panels

Spaces that hold the weight of the conversation — and the scale of the audience.

A conference is more than a schedule — the space shapes how the day is experienced and what people take away from it.

UNLOCKED is an adaptable alternative to traditional conference venues in London, with connected multi-room formats for keynotes, panel discussions, breakout sessions and networking, all shaped around the flow of the day and supported by in-house production.

❋ Multi-Room Programming

Host keynotes, panel discussions and breakout sessions simultaneously across multiple connected studios — all within one Shoreditch venue, without the need to split across buildings or floors that don't communicate.

❋ Designed for Flow

The layout can be configured around how audiences move through the day — from seated talks and stage formats through to open networking, workshop zones and informal session spaces.

In-house sound, lighting and staging support means panels, talks and presentations are delivered at scale without the cost and complexity of bringing in a full external production team.

❋ Integrated Production

A raw, industrial Shoreditch space that gives conferences and summits a more considered, characterful environment than a hotel ballroom or generic conference centre — and one that people actually want to attend.

FAQs

What capacity does UNLOCKED offer for conferences?

1

The Shoreditch venue holds up to 1,500 guests across six studios and multiple floors, with individual spaces bookable separately for smaller panel talks or combined for large-scale summits and multi-track conference formats.


Does UNLOCKED have in-house AV and production for conferences?

2

Yes — sound, lighting and staging are supported in-house, removing the need to source and manage a separate production team for panel discussions, keynote presentations and live-streamed sessions.


Can the venue run multiple sessions at the same time?

3

Yes — the multi-studio layout allows keynotes, breakout sessions and networking to run simultaneously in separate spaces, giving conferences the multi-track structure that a single-room venue can't support.


Is UNLOCKED suitable as an alternative to traditional conference venues?

4

It's specifically designed for organisations that want something beyond a hotel ballroom or generic conference centre — the industrial Shoreditch setting gives events a more distinctive character that reflects positively on the brand hosting them.


Where is UNLOCKED located for conference hire in London?

5

The venue is in Shoreditch, EC2A, within walking distance of Old Street and Shoreditch High Street stations — well connected for delegates travelling from across London and beyond.
