Royal Victoria Dock and ExCel Exhibition Centre

The Royal Victoria Dock is the largest of three docks in the Royal Docks of east London, now part of the redeveloped Docklands. The dock is dominated by the ExCeL Exhibition Centre

The ExCel Exhibition Centre dominates the northern part of the Royal Victoria Dock site. It was opened in Nov 2000 and provides a very large conference / exhibition space with well equipped dockside facilities, accessible from the River Thames. The site has excellent transport links including two stations of the Docklands Light Railway (opened in late 1980s) at either end, is a short hop from London City Airport and is a short walk from the north side of the Emirates Air Line cable car from North Greenwich.

As well as the dockside and covered space, there is a smaller west side outdoor space and a larger east side area which is big enough to act simultaneously as a helicopter landing site and static display venue.
