A fantastic venue! The 70ft narrowboat offers a unique and enjoyable experience on the canals. It has a capacity for 42 passengers on board. The ability to convert to an open top allows guests to fully appreciate the surroundings while still providing covers in case of rain. The contemporary feel of the boat adds to the overall ambiance.

The presence of a bar towards the rear of the vessel is a great addition, allowing guests to enjoy refreshments while cruising along the canals. The allocated seating along each side of the boat ensures everyone has a comfortable place to sit, while leaving enough room in the middle for socialising and dancing.

Safety is a top priority, as there is an experienced RYA Skipper captaining the boat and a staff member on board to navigate through the canals safely. Having a toilet onboard is also convenient for guests, ensuring their comfort throughout the journey. Overall, this venue provides a unique and enjoyable experience, combining the beauty of the canals with modern comforts and entertainment options. It’s a wonderful choice for a memorable event or leisurely cruise.

    Copper Quay was brilliant! I organised an event to take place on their canal boat and it was fantastic. The crew were extremely helpful, we were able to bring our own drinks, they had a great sound system and were super accommodating with any other requests. The boat was the perfect size for 40 people. I will definitely be using them in the future for other events.

    We had a fantastic trip along the canal on Freda. The staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful. There were 21 of us on a hen do and there was still plenty of room to move around and dance. The boat was beautiful and provided a great backdrop for some lovely photos.

    We booked the Copper Quay for a summer office party. It was a great success. The crew were really friendly and helpful throughout. We pre-ordered well-priced drinks and brought our own food. Cruising along the canal, through the locks, is a really enjoyable and the adding karaoke was great fun!

    Celebrated my birthday on the canal with Copper Quay and it was by far one of the best birthday celebrations. They’re so easy to work with, take amazing care of your group and have fun options like karaoke to keep the fun going throughout the trip. Highly recommend!

    OMG! The best party ever!! Thank you so much Yan, Alex and the rest of the Crew for making my 50th boat party the best ever. All my guests were very happy with the whole experience from start to finish and we had a lovely sunny day which made fabulous viewing cruising from Kings Cross to Little Venice. The bustling Camden scene and the monkies at London Zoo were a special treat. Karoke was also fun - what a treat that was! Yan is a true boating professional and one of the nicest people I have ever met and his wonderful personality and professionalism was second to none throughout our agreement. The Copper Quay is undoubtly the best venue for celebrations and a unique venue with flair and adventure. I also took the Angel/Islington route for my Away Day at work in May and that was great too, socialising and bonding with work colleagues! Thank you so much guys and hopefully see you again soon!
