About this space

Upgrade your summer celebration with a privately chartered vessel on the River Thames

The long summer months are the perfect opportunity for a company-wide celebration, whether your company numbers hundreds of employees or just a handful. A summer party allows you to give something back to your employees, celebrate a successful 1/2 year and connect with your colleagues - but it needs to be handled well. To guarantee building an event to be remembered for all the right reasons, look to the water and a summer boat event.

West End on the Thames’ fleet of vessels can accommodate groups of all sizes, from 2 to 500 people, and every vessel is perfectly equipped for summer celebrations. Their large open decks are ideal for lounging under the summer sun with chilled Pimms and an on-deck BBQ, all while your guests are treated to the extraordinary sights of London’s iconic architecture.

With their astounding customer service, WEOTT events team can tailor your event to your specific needs and wishes. If you’re interested in a themed party, such as a Summer Garden or Hawaiian Theme, their team can provide props, decor and catering to match, from synthetic grass and garden games to hanging lanterns and a steel band.

The indoor spaces of these vessels are equally as impressive as the decks, however. With extensive floor space, bars and catering facilities, they transform into your own privately chartered dancefloor in the evening, though one with spectacular views of London’s illuminated skyline throughout. Again, West End on the Thames’ events team can customise the interior of the vessel to suit your function for a truly bespoke package, including catering, entertainment and decor

Their sales team will provide you with a quote once you have submitted a brief, from which their events team will liaise closely with you to create a superb function tailored to your requirements.

Private hire packages start from approximately £7,000, depending on group size and requirements.
