Celebrate Your Company Anniversary on the Thames

A company anniversary deserves a setting to match it. The River Thames offers a backdrop that no other venue can replicate, with London's most iconic landmarks passing by as your guests celebrate on a private vessel built entirely around your milestone.

Choose from our vessel portfolio and create a company anniversary celebration that reflects the scale of what you have achieved. We accommodate groups of 20 to 500 guests, with a range of boats available to suit everything from an intimate gathering of senior leadership to a company-wide celebration for the whole team.

Your anniversary is a story worth telling, and the event should reflect that. Our team can incorporate bespoke branding throughout the vessel, from branded signage, colour schemes and custom table settings to anniversary-themed décor that runs through every detail on board. AV equipment is available across all vessels, including screens for company history reels, milestone presentations, photography slideshows, or a message from your leadership team, giving you a fully equipped venue that feels personal rather than corporate.

Catering is tailored to the tone of your occasion. Options range from arrival canapés and drinks receptions through to informal sharing menus and formal seated dinners, with all dietary requirements accommodated. Your Senior Event Planner will help shape a menu that feels right for the milestone you are marking and the guests you are hosting.

Entertainment can be as understated or as celebratory as the occasion calls for. From a curated playlist or string quartet to a live band or DJ, we have a number of recommended acts and contacts. We can also arrange a photographer to capture the day, ensuring the moments that matter are preserved long after the cruise has ended.
