Events at the Studio can be booked with other inspirational social spaces within the BFI Southbank such as the Blue Room or the Riverfront restaurant and Balcony Bar, which provide the perfect venues for a pre- or post-event cocktail or reception.

The high service standards of our professional and dedicated events crew are part of the reason why clients repeatedly rebook our spaces - no matter what the format, we will go the extra mile to help you stage a successful and memorable event.
