Make it one to remember

The most desirable event space in Covent Garden. Come and throw your function, product launch or awards dinner at The Guinness Vaults. This is a state-of-the-art venue you can call your own.

The Guinness Vaults are home to two venues. Set in the charming trappings of the old brewery site, both feature beautiful elements of Victorian architecture. Brick arched basements bring people together in a setting teeming with life and history.
