About the Venue

The Brewery is one of London's most distinctive event venues, combining Georgian heritage architecture with modern conference facilities. The exposed timber roof of the Porter Tun, antique wooden floors, and barrel-vaulted ceilings create a unique atmosphere you won't find at a typical conference centre.

With multiple event spaces across the site — including the courtyard retreat for networking and socialising — it's the perfect home for GopherCon UK.
