Is it because they sit overlooking the Thames and some of London’s most well‑known landmarks? Is it because they are located in the centre of London and perfect for journalists to come to? Is it because they are just incredible venues? Whatever the reasons, all we know is that One Events’ newest venues One Embankment and One Horse Guards have been a massive hit with companies holding press and product launches!

It all kicked off soon after One Horse Guards’ opening with very long-standing client Marks and Spencer launching their summer food to key journalists. Produced by Fisher Productions, the venue was awash with colour and freshly baked delights!

Not long after we were lucky enough to work with Maverick Publicity and their client, Antler, who were previewing their stylish Autumn Winter 2014 luggage collection, which coincided with their 100th year anniversary. Our stunning views of the Thames and London’s iconic landmarks further emphasised Antler’s British identity.

Our next client decided they loved the building so much, they stayed for a month! We were delighted that dunhill decided to base their Summer Showroom with us. Part Press Office, Showroom, photo studio the British Luxury fashion label made use of the venue’s many rooms to create a multitude of activities.

Not to be outdone by its smaller sister venue, One Embankment got in on the act when Ultimate Fighting Championship came to the UK. We don’t think we ever never imagined hosting this type of event but it was the busiest ‘build up’ session ever attended in the history of UFC ‘fight week’.

If you were asked to name one London Evening newspaper, we know what the answer would be! The Evening Standard entered a new phase of their existence by launching TV channel London Live with more than 500 leading figures from TV, PR and advertising in attendance.The last two companies have been regular clients of One Events venues and decided another one of our venues was perfect for them.

NEXT Autumn Winter 2014 took place in May and featured neon lit installations for a variety of collections for the upcoming season. Press and bloggers were high in attendance and the team at NEXT made the visitors’ stay as comfortable as possible with canapés and cakes and even a ‘beauty area’ for a bit of pampering!

PUSH UK helped Sony to launch the Sony Xperia Z2 – the event saw performances from Katy B with appearances from Jack Whitehall, Professor Green and the cast of Made in Chelsea.
