Set beneath a characterful four-floor venue in Notting Hill, The Basement offers an intimate, production-ready setting for music events, private parties and creative launches. Formerly part of an iconic West London events institute, the building has an established identity rooted in West London’s creative scene, with interiors that balance raw architectural character and a more considered, atmospheric finish. Each floor has its own personality, and the venue can be hired by the space or exclusively as a complete building, giving organisers flexibility over the scale and format of their event. All the available spaces in this venue are linked below.

Designed with music and performance in mind, the basement centres around a dedicated stage with lighting, alongside facilities for DJs and live bands. Its enclosed, subterranean setting lends itself to immersive events, where sound, lighting and visuals can shape the atmosphere. Interchangeable black or white curtains allow the room to shift between a darker, more dramatic club-style environment and a cleaner, editorial backdrop for filming, photography or media events. A projector screen adds further scope for screenings, branded content and visual installations.

A private bar and flexible seating make it easy to adapt the layout around the occasion, whether the brief calls for a live showcase, a product launch or a late-night celebration. The bar can be arranged around the event’s needs, from staffed cocktail service to a self-pour setup or product display. Access is via a single staircase, giving the space a tucked-away, exclusive feel. The wider Number 10 team can support event delivery and connect clients with trusted suppliers, while the building’s dry-hire approach leaves room to bring an individual creative vision to life.
