St Kat’s Sessions: Valentine’s Jazz on the Water
Following two sold-out performances in December, ‘St Kat’s Sessions‘ returns to the Docks this Valentine’s Weekend with an intimate live jazz experience set on London’s only floating entertainment pontoon!
Taking place within one of the capital’s most atmospheric waterfront settings, the event invites couples, music lovers and city romantics alike to enjoy an evening of live music surrounded by the gently illuminated waters of the docks.
Leading the series is acclaimed vocalist Olivia Swann, whose rich, sultry vocals and magnetic stage presence promise a truly memorable performance. Set against the sparkling backdrop of St Katharine Docks, Olivia will be joined by special guests to deliver an elegant jazz club atmosphere, blending soulful love songs with mellow jazz classics.
The event is supported by British sparkling wine brand Nyetimber, whose dedicated bar will serve throughout both performances, and The Melusine, the estate’s acclaimed seafood restaurant. Adding to the romantic ambience, The Melusine will offer Freshly Shucked Oysters (£3 each), alongside a Surf n Turf Brioche Bun (£12) and Cup of Fish Soup (£10), bringing luxury waterfront dining to this unique floating venue.

A Unique Floating Venue
In recent years, St Katharine Docks’ floating pontoon has become one of the estate’s most sought-after event spaces. Drawing millions of visitors annually, the docks offer a rare combination of central London accessibility and a tranquil waterside setting.
The pontoon’s position within the basin creates a natural amphitheatre where sound carries beautifully across the water, offering exceptional acoustics and an intimate connection between performer and audience. Few venues in London can rival this blend of atmosphere, location and acoustic quality.
