The Doors Open To First Box Venue In London

Arc Inspirations has opened the doors to its highly anticipated new venue, BOX Piccadilly. This marks the group’s debut in the South of England, and a major milestone in its national expansion. cated on Shaftesbury Avenue, the £4 million, 7200sqft central London venue, will now transform the sports bar offering in the capital with its signature mantra: Watch, Play, Party.

Spread across three floors, the venue will showcase a packed calendar of live sporting events such as the top NFL games, domestic, European and international football, including Premier League, Champions League and La Liga.  Global sports such as Formula 1, rugby and cricket will be available to watch. Throughout November, all the fixtures for the Autumn Internationals 2025 Rugby will be shown.

The team at BOX Piccadilly will be led by General Manager, Christie Carlitos. Having worked in management roles across the capital for brands such as PizzaExpress, Mitchells & Butlers and Be at One venues in Mayfair and the West End, Christie brings a wealth of expertise and knowledge of the London hospitality industry to the role. Most recently, Christie was the General Manager of The Blues Kitchen, in the city.
