Hiring three rooms for pop-ups and events

WHAT IS THREE ROOMS?

three rooms is a renovated Victorian bootmaker's in Walthamstow Village - calm and airy, filled with natural light from two directions, with clean white walls and carefully restored floorboards.

We're available to hire for retail pop-ups and residencies, book, brand and product launches, photography and film shoots, creative workshops, classes and retreats - whatever you can imagine. Our minimum hire is one week, but our low rates mean we're competitive even for a one-off event - have a look at our image gallery and find a floor plan here.

CHRISTMAS HIRE

We have one last pop-up week available - the week right before Christmas (16-22/12) when Walthamstow Village is buzzing with shoppers on the hunt for last-minute gifts from independent retailers.

It's a bargain at £799 - check out all the info on this page and in our POP- UP FAQs, then get in touch to book.

LOCATION

three rooms is in Walthamstow Village, one of the nicest places to shop, browse, eat and drink in East London.We're positioned between the shops and cafés of Orford Rd, the local primary school and one of the best pubs, so pretty much everyone - young families, dog parents, freelancers going for a sandwich or friends heading out for a drink - walks past our big window.

Walthamstow itself is a creative, buzzing place with a strong community vibe - really the best of London neighbourhoods.

Walthamstow Central is 14 minutes from Kings Cross on the Victoria line, with a train every 100 seconds at peak times, and the gallery itself is a twelve minute stroll from there.

HOW IT WORKS

We keep our pop-up / event rates lower than comparable spaces at £799 per week during January - November (please contact us about TV/film/video shoots).

We manage this by minimising maintenance, management and downtime, so:

• There's a gallery hanging system - artwork and items for sale can displayed on transparent cords attached to rails at ceiling height. It's not possible to drill into the walls

• The hanging system can cope with most things (up to 40kg!), but if you need to attach light items, texts, labels etc directly to the walls you can do so using these three specific adhesive products for a £30 supplement to cover the additional wear and tear.

• You'll need to have a good clean before you go, to leave the space ready for the next artist or pop-up.

• You'll take all rubbish away with you

• You'll need to provide other items like tables and seating, retail shelving and rails, if required.
