About Us: Outernet London - The Future of Immersive Culture

Welcome to Outernet, the UK's number one most visited cultural destination, and one of the world’s most ambitious entertainment districts, where technology, culture and creativity come together in real time, in the heart of central London.

At the heart of the district is The Now Building, a first-of-its-kind immersive space featuring a four-storey, 360-degree 16K wraparound screen.

With more than 120,000 visitors passing through each week, it has redefined how audiences experience content, transforming Outernet into the UK’s most visited cultural attraction.

But what happens here goes far beyond what’s on screen.

Four levels below sits Outernet Live a 1,800-capacity live venue hosting concerts, club nights, fashion shows, premieres and cultural moments that shape London’s creative scene.

Designed to push sound, light and production to the next level, it has quickly become a benchmark for live entertainment in the capital.

Just steps away, on legendary Denmark Street (the historic home of British music culture) The Lower Third continues that legacy.

A fiercely independent grassroots venue supporting emerging artists, it combines an intimate performance space, cocktail bar and basement club built for discovery, experimentation and creative freedom.

Outernet London isn’t just a collection of venues.

It’s a platform for storytelling, a testing ground for new ideas and a workplace where producers, creatives, technologists and operators collaborate to create experiences seen by millions.

Whether you’re launching global campaigns, producing live shows or helping audiences discover something new, this is a place where ambitious people can make a real impact.

This is Outernet London.
