What to Consider Before You Hire a Sport Hall or Gymnasium in London
Not all sports halls are created equal. Before you make a booking, take time to review the following:
- Flooring specifications – Different sports require different surfaces. Sprung wooden floors are ideal for dance and basketball, while vinyl or rubber floors may be better suited to general fitness or martial arts.

- On-site amenities – Check for essentials like changing rooms, showers, and storage facilities if your event requires them.
- Accessibility – Ensure the venue provides step-free access, accessible toilets, and lifts where necessary.

Everything was incredible- our event was organised pretty last minute (less than three weeks ahead of time) and Aliyah at the Mondrian was so helpful and responsive throughout the process. The Mondrian were super accommodating with everything that we requested, and the staff on the night were also INCREDIBLE, so friendly and very happy to help with anything we asked for. The venue itself was obviously stunning, and we were lucky to have it on a sunny evening so the photographs look great :)
