After specialising in exclusive events in unique venues throughout the capital, Shout About London is the creative agency that leading brands want to work with at the moment. After having hosted one of the most talked about events of 2018, I wanted to find out more about the two young entrepreneurs behind Shout About London. Having set up in 2013 by two under-30 Londoners, Ben Gamble, and Stuart Groves, Shout About has grown exponentially, with the likes of Sky Media, Google, Redbull and Salesforce now calling themselves regular clients. T Having completed a 24hr Hackathon for Emap and the complete build for the launch of Game Of Thrones at Southwark Cathedral, not to mention securing numerous ‘firsts’ for venues and brands throughout the city, Ben and Stuart aren’t the kind of directors to sit back and leave the hard graft to their employees. To add another string to their bow, this year Shout About partnered on a new venue, Lost Rivers Leake Street, under Waterloo station on the iconic Leake Street Graffiti tunnel. They have grand ideas for this venue, with a 3-phase development plan already in place. However, in true Shout About style, the fact that the venue is in its shell state hasn’t stopped the brand from hosting some exclusive events.
Bored of the same old places? What if we could show you an Axe Throwing, Slam Dunking, Turbo Bouncing, Front Flipping, Bat **** crazy night out? and all before your first beer! Even better, what if you only needed two places to do it in? This week on the Shout About London Podcast we have Urban Axe Throwing venue Whistle Punks. Hear how a game of bubble football, escalated into slinging axes into wooden targets. Followed by the incredible, brand new, indoor Leisure Park: Zap Space. Both kids and adults can bounce around this dynamic world of adventure; busting front flips into huge foam diving pits, racing down the vertical slides, or slam dunking into the night.
