Riverside Studios

Riverside Studios aims to be London’s pre-eminent space for risk, inspiration and creativity in the arts and media, in a setting which is energetic, internationalist and friendly.

Riverside Studios is a unique arts and media centre on the banks of the Thames in Hammersmith, comprising two main performance studios, a cinema, a TV studio and production galleries, numerous offices and a large contemporary Restaurant and Bar, a Film Cafe and River Terrace.

The theatre programme presents a mix of co-productions and international visiting work, often at the cutting edge of performance. The Cinema is one of the last fully repertory programmes in the UK, with a different double bill every night.

Studio 1 has become one of the most successful independent TV studios in London, now run by Riverside TV Studios Limited – a separate commercial company - and the centre hosts a range of exhibitions and functions, as well as being home to a range of tenant companies.

The loft style Restaurant and Bar and gallery space at the heart of the building, provides a welcoming place to eat and drink and view some of the regular exhibitions of art and photography.
