"In the East we have a wide range of interesting venues, perfect for hosting any function or event. If you are looking for something futuristic, traditional or just something different, you will find something to meet any event brief? even an Airport!"

"With two World Heritage sites in Greenwich and the Tower of London and one of the world's most modern and dynamic business districts in Canary Wharf, and the huge diversity in between, London Eastside exemplifies the rich blend of the traditional and the contemporary elements of Britain that visitors both international and domestic find so enduringly attractive."

“Plans for East London’s future are at the very heart of the London’s overall development and Visit London is delighted to have such a proactive relationship with the team at London Eastside.  With so many new businesses, building developments and of course the Olympic Park this dynamic corner of the capital means that all eyes are on London. Since winning the bid to host the London 2012 Olympic Games and Paralympic Games there has been an even greater buzz around the city and in particular East London and the docklands area. New Hotels are being built, new restaurants are opening, new venues such as ExCeL London are being expanded and even more transport links are being updated and created. The City of London is thriving and East London is at the forefront of that change. There has never been a better time to come to London to do business and to do business in East London.”

Director of Business Tourism, Visit London

"London Eastside is fast becoming the number 1 area in the UK to hold any size and type of event or conference. This is one reason why we regularly report on and feature the east side of London within Conference News."
