Untitled - The Hospital Club

The Hospital Club Events Company
“ The golden rule is there are no rules. ”
George Bernard Shaw
The Hospital Club is unique
because it’s the only Club designed
specifically for the creative
industries; it is seven floors of
inspiration, collaboration and
provocation. Our building is a
space to think, work and play
and we like to host and produce
all types of events to reflect this
philosophy. We want to keep our
clients refreshed, stimulated and
inspired with our work.
Our award-winning Events team has
experience in pleasing a demanding and
ambitious client base who rarely want the
norm. 80% of our business is repeat business
and The Hospital Club Events Company
manages events both inside and outside of
the building. We can do everything for you;
from finding the venue, to providing the
catering, to overseeing the production of the
event itself. All you have to do is show up
and enjoy.
01
The Hospital Club and Beyond
As a prospective client, we encourage
you to have a look around The
Hospital Club to experience its
beautiful surroundings. The in-house
Events Team is on hand to take you
through all the options available to
make your event truly unforgettable.
The Club offers a huge variety of event
spaces and facilities including bars,
lounges, a restaurant, screening room
and gallery, alongside state-of-the-art
music & TV production facilities.
Moreover, if you’re looking for production
on an event outside of the Club, look no
further than our external events team. We
pride ourselves on having the experience
and expertise to organise any type of
event, anytime, anywhere. Our company
is founded on a bespoke mix of creative
concepts, production talent and personal
service; we understand what you want and
will interpret your vision.

Our Approach
“ The way we distinguish ourselves is by showing our individuality. ”
Our background means that we
understand how creativity happens.
It’s all about the preparation, the
checking of every little detail and
rolling with last minute ideas
and changes. The Hospital Club
Events Company offers bespoke
event management and production
services for all occasions. We will
work closely with you to find and
style your ideal venue, build your
menu and book your entertainment.
We always invest time in getting to
know our client and their company,
so we can develop a thorough
understanding of how we can help
you achieve your objectives.
We are privileged to work with a host of
experts in their professional and creative
fields, including stage managers, lighting
designers, creative directors and stylists,
so can look after everything from the
design of your invitations to your guest
list. In addition, we’ll take care of any
operational, technical or production
management, down to all your security
and staffing requirements. In fact, there
isn’t anything we won’t do to make your
event a success.

Great Taste
Unlike many events companies, we
don’t just have food and beverage
offering on the side. Our heritage
as a members’ restaurant and bar
means we have a working professional
kitchen and resident chef who can
work with us to create your menu.
We bring together a passion for
food with creative culinary expertise
and most of the produce we use is
locally sourced and seasonal, so you
can be sure the food will be one of
the highlights of your event. We
can accommodate a range of tastes
and dietary requirements, drawing
06
inspiration from the contemporary
to the traditional, the rustic to the
regional. Every menu will be unique
to your event, and put together with
tender loving care.
We pride ourselves on our glamorous
Martini Lounge and extensive cocktail list
and our bar team will create delicious and
unique cocktails especially for your event.
We can also create a bespoke wine list for
you, along with several other drink options:
Fine wines, champagne, cocktails, fresh
juices – we like to mix it up for you and
your guests.

Events Outside the Building
“ We want to thank the team for a fantastic job on the ‘Wicked’ press
night event – it was all we hoped for and from the comments I received
and overheard, everyone had a wonderful evening – wowed by the
play and the hot party – raving about venue and food. So, great job and
it was a pleasure working with you, Hospital Club team – you outdid
yourselves and if we are given another opportunity to do an event in
London we’ll be calling you as well as referring you when asked! ”
Hollace Davids, Senior Vice President Special Projects, Universal
The external events company was
created to answer the requests of
many clients wanting us to arrange
their events in other locations, and as
a result we’ve organised some pretty
spectacular events outside of The
Hospital Club.

“ Thank you so much for all your hard work on the (BlackBerry) Bold
Launch. We had more than usual to contend with this time from moving
dates and last minute insertion of our CEO. As ever, it is a pleasure to
work with you both and I hope you get some rest this weekend and let’s
talk about the next event next week! ”
“ On a more personal note, it was a great pleasure to have worked with
you: you made my job so easy, to a point where I literally had nothing to
do and no stress! It really was noticeable the difference between yourselves
and other event agencies. Thank you again and look forward to working
with you again. ”
