The Line

The Line is a central London venue for organisers planning business events, receptions and private gatherings beside the River Thames. Formerly known as 58VE, it offers three flexible spaces across the ground, sixth and seventh floors, with layouts suited to everything from focused meetings to larger receptions and conferences.

On the seventh floor, Skyline is a bright, glass-wrapped room with river views, two balconies, built-in technology and a private bar and kitchen. It can host up to 200 guests for a reception or 120 for dinner. Highline combines a glass-fronted lounge, fixed bar and rooftop terrace, making it a distinctive choice for drinks receptions and smaller dinners. At ground level, Waterline provides a versatile setting that can be divided into two rooms and paired with a light-filled foyer. Its flexible layouts support meetings, presentations, dinners and larger gatherings.

The venue’s spaces include integrated event technology, and its location is a short walk from Blackfriars station. Organisers can discuss their brief with the venue team and enquire about arrangements for their event. In-house catering is available through FIKA, the venue’s catering partner, with hospitality designed to complement the event setting.

The Line is operated by Nesta Enterprises, and its profits support Nesta’s work as a research and innovation foundation. This gives event organisers a choice of contemporary riverside spaces for both professional and social occasions, with the flexibility to select a room and format that suit their guest numbers and plans.
