A venue like no other

Conceived and designed by Marks Barfield Architects Unforgettable Events

British Airways i360 is the world’s tallest moving observation tower and world’s first vertical cable car, conceived and designed by Marks Barfield Architects, creators of the Eye.

Your guests will glide up slowly to 450 feet in a futuristic glass viewing pod to enjoy the breathtaking panoramic 360o view.

The giant glass viewing pod can be hired exclusively for receptions for up to 200 people. It has a Sky Bar, state of the art sound system and video screens, which can all be tailored to your requirements.

Guests will be able to enjoy a glass of sparkling wine, a drinks and canapé reception or even a full banquet on board.

The pod is available to book day or night as part of your event or for an exclusive flight. Beachside Rooms

British Airways i360 is the ultimate beach-side venue.

Our beachside event rooms are located in a separate suite from the main public building with their own entrance. They have natural daylight, sound systems and sea views, as well as private terraces overlooking the beach. Flexible walls mean we can hold events of all sizes ranging from 12 – 477 guests.

There is no other venue like this on the South Coast and we have taken exceptional care to design the spaces and all the facilities to create somewhere truly special for receptions, banquets, meetings, conferences and product launches.

You can also offer a combination of your event in our hospitality rooms and a private flight for your guests.

Artist’s Impression Team Building

We will be developing a range of fun team building activities for corporate and private groups.

Do you dare to abseil out from 450 feet out of our glass pod? Can you follow the clues and find treasure hidden around the city using the latest geocaching technology? Can you build a raft and make it float or win at beach volleyball? Ask the events team for details.
