Frequently Asked Questions
What are the venue hire costs for business events at The Glass House?
Venue hire pricing varies by date and time, with specific rates available through their pricing links for occasions and private hire. The venue fee includes complimentary use of furniture. Security is mandatory for most bookings, with additional staff and hire items available at extra cost.
What is the maximum capacity for the Business space and what's included?

What are the catering requirements and costs for business meetings?
The venue operates as 'dry hire' only, meaning all food and beverages must be provided through their accredited caterers. If you prefer to bring an external caterer, there's a £535-£550 + VAT accreditation fee (pricing mentioned varies between sources). External caterers must provide food safety certificates, risk assessments, PAT test certificates, and public liability insurance.
What kitchen facilities are available for catering preparation?
The venue has prep kitchens only, so caterers must bring all equipment needed for service. The kitchens are not fully equipped for cooking, requiring external caterers to come prepared with their own serving equipment and heating facilities.
Is security mandatory for business events and what does it cost?
Security is mandatory for most bookings at The Glass House. The exact costs and requirements for security staff are detailed in their extras pricing list, which is referenced but specific rates are not provided in the available information.
Can we bring our own AV equipment or entertainment for presentations?
You can bring your own equipment including bands and AV gear, but you must provide public liability insurance, risk assessments, and PAT test certificates for any equipment that requires plugging in. The venue does not provide DJ equipment or comprehensive AV services.
How far in advance can we book and what's the holding period?
The venue can provisionally hold a time slot for 5 days while you complete your booking process. Viewing availability is updated weekly and only scheduled up to one month in advance, so you should check back regularly if no suitable viewing times are initially available.
Are there any restrictions on what we can bring or serve at business events?
No alcohol or helium balloons are permitted at the venue. All food must be provided by licensed caterers - you cannot supply your own food even for business meetings. Cold snacks and soft drinks may be allowed in specific circumstances, but this appears limited to certain event types.
What's the process for booking a site visit for the Business space?
You can book a viewing through their online booking system at hackneyvenues.as.me/TheGlassHouse. Viewing availability is updated weekly and scheduled only up to one month in advance, so if no suitable times are available, check back the following week.
