Tea Loft is a 365 m² event loft in Paris 10e that a company can hire on its own, for seminars of 30 to 80 people, receptions of up to 120 standing and dinners of 100 seated. It sits at 16 rue du Faubourg Saint-Denis and is let to one group at a time, with furniture and audiovisual equipment included.
Seminars and company events
The loft is built for study days that alternate plenary sessions and workshops. The ground-floor plenary room covers 200 m² under a glass roof and takes 80 people theatre style in comfort, or 100 at the maximum. Classroom layout seats 45, a U-shaped table 30 and cabaret tables 50. On the lower level, a 100 m² space with daylight lets two groups of ten or three groups of eight work in parallel while the plenary stays set up above.
The venue offers three formats: a full study day, a half day, and a full day followed by a 15-piece cocktail that runs until 9 p.m. Packages start from 30 participants. Below that number, the venue proposes hire of the space alone, with catering ordered separately.
Receptions and other formats
For cocktails, afterworks and press evenings the whole loft takes up to 120 people standing. A banquet seats 100 in the plenary room. The official site also lists film shoots, photo shoots, showrooms, product launches and pop-up food events, which makes the space useful for brands as well as for teams. It does not present itself as a wedding venue, and the site does not mention weddings.
Rooms and capacities
The plenary room is the main space. The lower-level room is intended for sub-groups and, according to the site, can also serve as a dressing room and makeup area when the upper floor is used as a set. Both levels have natural light, Wi-Fi and power outlets along the walls. The venue states that no other group shares the building during your booking.
Catering
A catering preparation area is available on site. You can bring your own caterer or use the venue's formulas, which cover a welcome breakfast, breaks, lunch and cocktails. Water and coffee are included in the study-day packages.
Equipment
The hire includes a video projector and screen, sound system, microphones, a flipchart, and tables and chairs for every layout. The venue states that nothing has to be rented separately.
Getting there
Strasbourg-Saint-Denis metro station (lines 4, 8 and 9) is two minutes away. Bonne Nouvelle (lines 8 and 9) is four minutes away and Château d'Eau (line 4) five. Gare de l'Est is a 13-minute walk and Gare du Nord 17 minutes, so guests arriving from other cities need no transfer. The loft does not offer bedrooms, so overnight guests book hotels nearby.
