The Barbican Conservatory is located on Level 3, if you’re coming from inside the main Barbican building, and will be sign-posted throughout.

Walking from Barbican tube station, you’ll see steps with ‘Art Gallery’ above them, these will lead you up to the Sculpture Court where you’ll see a sign for the Conservatory.

WHEN:

We’ll be having welcome drinks between 1630 and 1800, so please arrive between then.

We’re not so formal, so neither is our event.

Both food and the dance floor will start promptly at 1830 (so definitely don’t be later than that!).

As we’re in London, we do have a curfew. All music will stop at 2330.

ABOUT:

The Conservatory was designed by the Barbican’s architects Chamberlin, Powell and Bon between 1980 and 1981, and was opened in 1984.

The Conservatory now houses around 1,500 species of plants and trees, some of which are rare and endangered in their native habitat. These include places like the rocky deserts and bushland of South Africa to the coastline of Brazil.

There are some ponds on the third floor, which are home to koi, ghost, and grass carp from Japan and America, as well as other cold water fish such as roach, rudd, and tench. There are even terrapins located outside the Arid House pond! Please take a look, we kindly ask you to keep your clothes on though and avoid giving them any human treats from our buffet.
