Drumsheds

This October, Drumsheds became the stage for Creative HEAD’s Most Wanted Awards - a celebration of innovation and influence in British hairdressing. In partnership with Vibration Production, Room X was transformed into a full-scale awards venue - dinner tables framed beneath a custom-built stage and lighting rig, with live acts and award reveals unfolding throughout the night. Behind the scenes, The Stores supported Jimmy Garcia Catering, while Backstage shifted the atmosphere with DJs, drinks, and an afterparty that carried the celebration into the early hours. The result was an event that balanced ceremony with performance - proving how Drumsheds’ scale, production capability, and flow can shape unforgettable experiences.

For the second year in a row, Drumsheds hosted Black Tech Fest in partnership with Colorintech. Designed to inspire, connect, and accelerate career growth, the event brought together visionaries and innovators from across the industry. Speakers like Guy Richards (Director, Independent Developers & Digital Publishers at Xbox), and Samarth G.(Vice President, Goldman Sachs) joined leaders from Apple, BBC, and Morgan Stanley for a day of ideas, empowerment, and opportunity. Across The Yard, The Stores, and Room X, the venue became a platform for conversation, workshops, panels, and live activations. With both in-person and virtual audiences engaged, the event displayed how Drumsheds’ scale and flexibility support bold storytelling and community-driven programming. A celebration of culture, inclusion, and the people shaping technology’s future.

This August, Drumsheds became the stage for Gymshark’s biggest brand activation to date. Over three days, LIFT:LONDON reimagined the venue in partnership with Vibration Production - transforming Level 0 into a vast training ground of platforms, courts and conditioning zones, while upstairs The Stores became The Street, a Gymshark-built avenue lined with playful pop-ups including the Swole Arms pub, Pose Office, tattoo studio and nail bar. The result was part training camp, part cultural hub, part global fan meet-up. Uniting athletes, creators and fans under one roof and showing how Drumsheds’ scale and flexibility can bring brand culture to life on an extraordinary level.

1 warehouse. 3 playgrounds. 3000 students. Back in March, Taylor Bennett Foundation turned Drumsheds into The A List Festival by Adobe Express - a one-night party for the UK’s sharpest campus creators. Shuttle buses fed Room X, where DJs ran back-to-back sets. Students drifted to The Stores for street food and print labs, detoured through Room Y’s ten-minute poster battles, then climbed to The Gallery - an edit suite firing fresh artwork onto every screen. Walls, floors, pixels: all in Adobe colour; the warehouse, a total canvas. Full recap → https://lnkd.in/eNubyBND

Looking back to when Smyle chose Drumsheds for Spotify's 2023 Wrapped Live - 2,000 fans on the floor, the rest of the world watching on TikTok. Here are 3 standout moments from the night: • Global stream: 3.3 million viewers, 1.1 million likes, 100k active chatters and a huge spike in Spotify’s TikTok followers as a result. • Three rotating stages: Sam Smith opened with “Unholy” from a platform in the crowd before Charli XCX bought her signature 365 party girl energy. • Full venue wrap: branded reception, press wall, custom screens - and a giant Spotify logo lighting up Drumsheds’ blue exterior - turned every corner into a Wrapped moment.
