The Art Pavilion, Mile End Park

Absolutely great exhibition place, plenty of natural light and great views from the windows. In addition is in the good location and has a beautiful building itself.

We recently had our wedding at the Art Pavilion in Mile End Park and we honestly couldn't have asked for a better venue. The location is absolutely beautiful with the outdoor space having a mini island surrounded by the park's greenery, it felt so peaceful and special, the perfect setting for our day. The venue is fantastic value for money and offers so much flexibility. The space worked brilliantly for us, and having tables, chairs, and divider boards included made planning and setup much easier. We were also able to hire the venue for the evening before, to set up and reduce stress and save time on the day itself. The team at the Pavilion were wonderful to work with. Everyone was so friendly and helpful throughout the process, and on the day itself they were absolutely brilliant. A special thanks to Gary, who was always approachable, supportive, and made everything run so smoothly. Another great bonus was having access to fridges and a freezer on-site. We also hired some fridges but it made a big difference keeping all our drinks cool. We had the most amazing day and are so glad we chose the Art Pavilion for our wedding. It was everything we hoped for and more — we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful, flexible, and supportive venue for their special day!

We held our community festival there - Old Ford, Bow Festival - and it is a great, flexible location. All the facilities are good and staff are helpful and friendly.

What a lovely place for artists to display their work, lovely landscaped area outside with wildlife getting on with life.

I belong to an international group of textile artists who have been regularly exhibiting at The Art Pavilion in Mile End Park. The gallery space is really versatile, allowing us to showcase our work in the bright and airy space. The staff are so helpful when we set up the exhibition and run workshops during the event which makes the experience so great. The building is easily accessible and set in the beautiful scenery of the park. There is great public transport to the venue and it's also easy to get access to the small car park when setting up for events. I can't recommend the space enough for events

We hosted a ball recently at the Art Pavilion and were very pleased with both the venue and assistance from the staff. The location is really easy to access, and is situated in a suprisingly serene part of Mile End. The highlight for us was the personal island we had access to, which had fairy lights, benches, and even some gosling-sized visitors! The venue itself is large, with a good selection of commodities, and the huge glass windows which allow for lots of natural light. Staff support was excellent throughout and I would happiliy recommend this venue if you're looking to host an event in East london.

We have used this venue twice in the last two years. Once for our daughter's wedding and once for a Charity event. On both occasions everything went really well. The opportunities to visit prior to the events were great and support in the day could not have been better. All communications went well and the team checked in to make sure everything was okay. It is a wonderful oasis in the middle of the hussle and bustle of east end. I would highly recommend to others.

Excellent space for showing art works with a calming view out on to the pond, complete with ducks. Saw a fantastic exhibition put together by a group of textile artists, though I was very surprised by the inventive use of textiles along with other complimentary and challenging materials such as metal. The gallery space is bright, open and totally accessible and you can visit the surrounding park after. Pick an exhibition that interests you and make a day of it with a picnic later or go for a walk along the nearby canal towards Victoria park.

Though it's nothing like as manicured as parks such as Hyde Park, or even Victoria Park, Mile End Park is a nice little patch in the middle of Mile End, and ends in a unique park-cum-bridge that extends over Mile End Road itself. With the leisure centre and sports areas bordering it, Mile End Park provides a range of activities as well as a space for a relaxed picnic or kick-about.

I am not sure why the Mile End Art Pavillion has a map attached to it that shows the Edgware Road but Mile End Park is nowhere near the Edgware Road. The nearest tube station to the park is, of course, Mile End which is on the Central and District Line. The Art Pavillion is well worth a visit and has exhibitions that are usually free. It's an interesting space and has a neon sign outside that reads 'Art Pavillion'. It should also probably read 'Nowhere Near The Edgware Road'.
