Client Event Hospitality on the River Thames

Host your next client event on the River Thames with West End on the Thames. Our private vessels provide a distinctive London setting for client entertainment, combining panoramic river views with bespoke hospitality, branding, and full event management. We create tailored client event packages for groups of 20 to 500 guests, built around your goals, your guest list, and the impression you want to make.

A private boat on the Thames offers something a hotel ballroom or private dining room cannot: a setting that feels genuinely exclusive from the moment your clients step on board. Cruising past landmarks such as Tower Bridge and the City skyline, the environment does the work before the evening has even begun. Past clients, including Ernst & Young, Deloitte, Coca-Cola, and Net-A-Porter, have used the river to host client events that are still talked about long after the day itself.

Our vessels accommodate groups of 20 to 500 guests, with a range of boats available to suit the scale and style of your event. Each vessel features versatile indoor spaces with panoramic windows, as well as outdoor decks for guests who want to take in the views directly. Layout, flow, and styling are all adapted to your brief.

When it comes to branding, our team can create bespoke décor that puts your brand front and centre throughout the event, from branded signage and colour schemes to custom table settings. AV equipment is available across all vessels, including screens for brand videos, product content, or presentations, giving you a fully equipped venue without the venue limitations.

Catering is tailored to the tone of your event. Options range from arrival canapés and drinks receptions through to informal sharing menus and formal seated dinners, with all dietary requirements accommodated. Our team will help you build a menu that reflects the quality your clients expect.

We also handle the logistics. From central London departure piers to additional stops along the river for guests travelling from different locations, embarkation and disembarkation can be arranged to suit your group. If you prefer a static moored event rather than a cruise, that is an option too.

Your assigned Senior Event Planner will work closely with you from the first planning call through to the day itself, managing every detail so you can focus on your clients.
