The Company

Canvas is a subscription-based venue-finding platform generating high quality leads for some of the most unique and exclusive handpicked venues in London. We've got hundreds of exciting spaces, from spacious converted warehouses and majestic stately homes, to old industrial pump stations, and beautiful little Soho cafes.

We put a lot of emphasis on team unity, collaboration and personal development. We create an inspiring place where we work hard but have loads of fun along the way too.
