With exposed brickwork, alongside an open-plan layout with a definite tendency towards creatively-centred clientele, Cobalance is certainly ticking the boxes of the Shoreditch studio mould.

Shoreditch, London

The practically named Shoreditch Studios consist of a 3,500 sq. ft warehouse with a capacity for up to 350 guests. The building itself is centred around two adjoining railway arches, which form the basis for two studio spaces boasting the seemingly mandatory Shoreditch combination of exposed Victorian brickwork and high ceilings.


The studio comes with contemporary white infinity coves (a sort of curved white structure that proves essential in photoshoots), green rooms, a small kitchen, a mezzanine lounge and a spacious outdoor courtyard. Versatility is the name of the game here – with dry hire options, Shoreditch Studios can be transformed to order for art exhibitions, conferences, corporate functions, fashion shows, pop-ups, product launches and training events.

8. A Shoreditch Studio flooded in daylight: Lover Studios

Shoreditch, London

Resembling what we imagine Marie Kondo's apartment post-spring-cleaning, Lover Studio is certainly not a studio that can be accused of being cluttered. Double-height vaulted ceilings reveal the thick timber beam work which acts as a striking centrepiece for the lofty studio. This is complemented by hardwood flooring, large warehouse windows and minimalist furniture. The result is, as you can see, a stunning studio that feels as comfortable as it does spacious.


Capacity-wise, Lover Studios tops out at 80 people, with a good variety of event types being catered to. Unfortunately, the dog is not included.

Like many studios in Shoreditch, the structural framework for White Rabbit Studios comes from three interlinking victorian railway arches, parabolic focal points which give a degree of urban charm to the versatile studio space. Expect high-spec facilities which can lend your photo shoot, product launch or networking event a professional sheen.

12. A stunning studio for hire in East London: EartH Hackney

Dalston, London

Okay, so technically EartH is found a short jaunt up from Shoreditch, in the Dalston section of Kingsland Road. We're disregarding these facile distinctions, though, as EartH Hackney is a special studio space. The Theatre has a capacity of 680 seated (or 700 with a standing area). The studio wears its social responsibilities on its sleeves, bringing disparate artistic voices to its programming and signing up to the Good Night Out and the Mayor of London’s Women's Night Safety Charter.


The venue has retained all of its majestic, original features. Juxtaposed against its faded grandeur, the space is fitted out with state-of-the-art AV including a 360° L-ISA PA system and can play host to talks, conferences, AGMs, press launches and screenings.

Your guide to Shoreditch's studio venues

Looking for the perfect studio venue in Shoreditch that you can hire for a great price without compromising? You’ve come to the right place. Whether it’s a photography session, art show, dance performance or recording studio, these studio spaces can provide the ultimate backdrop for your Shoreditch event.

Get equipped.

This is the most important question you’ll want to ask yourself before pursuing a studio venue in Shoreditch. Unlike a lot of other venues, studios can often cater for very specific activities, and the equipment they provide could prove essential to your event. If, say, you’re planning a photography shoot, you may want a studio that offers professional lighting. Similarly, a music recording session wouldn’t be very successful without high-quality audio equipment. Communicating exactly what you’re after is essential in the planning process – after all, it’s your event.

Alternatively, go for a blank canvas

If you don’t need industry-specific equipment for your Shoreditch studio event, then you may be able to go for a much more general studio venue. In this case, you’ll want to think about the setup of the room: if you’re planning a dance recital, will you need space for the show and an audience? For art shows, is the natural light sufficient to let the pieces shine?

Consider the guests

No one wants to turn up to a beautiful studio event flustered from an overladen trek through Shoreditch's victorian roads and alleys. Narrow your venue search by working out the most accessible location for all your guests. We’d recommend taking a look at the overgorund and bus routes prior to booking, so you can be sure everyone will be able to make it. Top tip: Accessibility doesn’t just mean the tube (in fact, Shoreditch is better served by the Overground). Think of any disabled guests you might be inviting and make sure to check in with the venue regarding accessibility for everyone. Alternatively, let us know if you have specific requests, and we’ll make sure only the right venues get back.
