Riva Lounge

Riva Lounge is a private-hire venue in Catford, South East London, offering dedicated space for weddings, private celebrations and corporate events. Organisers can book the venue for occasions such as birthdays, engagement parties, baby showers, wedding receptions and company gatherings. Its rooms are described as self-contained spaces that can be hired independently, making the venue suitable for different event sizes and styles.

The main lounge can host up to 200 guests for private hire, with capacity varying according to the event format. Wedding information describes space for a seated meal for up to 100 guests, or a larger reception with drinks and canapes. Organisers can discuss how the layout and arrangements might suit their plans directly with the venue team.

Hire includes exclusive use of the space, a licensed bar, a dance floor, DJ booth and sound and lighting equipment. Tables and chairs are available, and the venue also offers staffing, door security and lighting options. The lounge is air-conditioned and heated, with a late licence for events. These features make it particularly suited to celebrations where guests want to dine, socialise and dance in one location.

Food options include canapes, buffets, carvery, afternoon tea and formal dining, with menus for both relaxed standing receptions and seated meals. Bespoke drinks packages can also be discussed. Riva Lounge additionally hosts funeral receptions and wakes, with menu choices ranging from sandwiches to hot buffets.
