CCT Venues-Smithfield - now a smarter choice than ever
August 2009
An expanded reception area and stylish new furniture were among the improvements on show when CCT Venues-Smithfield re-opened its doors last month. Clients were invited to come along on 23rd July to see for themselves how the venue has been updated and enhanced.
This unique Grade II listed building has been redecorated throughout and now includes a collection of inspiring artwork. Bright, contemporary, well-equipped rooms and a comfortable café restaurant can accommodate up to 500 people in total. A stream of visitors arrived between 8.00am and 5.30pm, enjoying tours of the facilities and sampling refreshments from the café restaurant.
Rooms named after breeds of livestock remind visitors they are at the heart of the UK's meat industry in historic Smithfield market. Produce has been traded here for more than 800 years, making it one of London's oldest markets. Following a £70 million refurbishment, the market is now considered the most modern in Europe. CCT Venues is located directly above the market, offering facilities full of character, and as the market operates at night, it is wonderfully quiet during the day. The area is also now famous for it's fashionable nightclubs and thriving restaurants and bars, ideal for winding down after a long day.
Conveniently located on the edge of the City and close to the West End, CCT Venues-Smithfield is suitable for a range of events including meetings, training, assessment centres and conferences.
