From the outset, our experience was seamless and our event manager Emily Watts was extremely helpful throughout. We had a seated dinner event with around 230 guests as well as a space for a dance floor and grazing table, and and there was still room for people to move around and mingle, with access to the balconies as well.We had the pleasure of celebrating our pre-wedding Indian Sangeet event at the Promenade Docklands in January 2026, and it was spectacular!
