With three expansive levels and highly flexible event spaces, Mercato can be tailored to suit a wide range of formats, guest numbers and styles of event.
Each level offers its own atmosphere and experience, allowing guests to create anything from cocktail-style networking events and seated dinners to product launches, brand activations, end-of-year celebrations and live entertainment experiences. Whether hiring a single space or the entire venue, our team works closely with every client to customise the layout, food offering and flow of the event.
