The sun is (intermittently) shining and so it would be rude not to kick off our list of the best things to do in Clapham with a visit to the gorgeous green space that is Clapham Common; the centrepiece of the area and the perfect setting to soak up some rays for approximately 3 minutes before complaining about it being too hot and having to retreat...
When in Clapham, be sure to pay a visit to Victorian-theatre-turned-music-hall-turned-all-round-entertainment-hub, the Clapham Grand. Whether you’re looking for live music, boozy bingo, stand-up comedy, sing-along movies, or just a good old fashioned knees-up; the Clapham Grand has something to entertain everybody. With an atmosphere as gorgeous as...
This isn’t just a cinema, this is Clapham Picturehouse, and it’s well worth adding to your things to do in Claphamlist. Located on the iconic Venn Street (you’ll be hearing more about that later), the Picturehousehas well and truly made its mark on Clapham and has become somewhat of a local landmark since it first opened its doors (and its popcorn ...
It’s sometimes easy to forget that there was a time when the streets of Clapham weren’t predominantly walked by posh uni grads and sleazy estate agents (a crazy thought, I know). Well don’t worry, because Clapham Old Town will help take you back in time and remind you how much historic charmthis part of the city has to offer. Take a wholesome weeke...
Now I know that this one may technically be in Battersea, but the closest station is Clapham Junction, so I’m going to let it slide. If you’re looking for somewhere that’s going to appeal to your fun (and slightly competitive) side, look no further. Inside the second converted music hall to make this list, we have the Four Thieves: a pub that seems...
Now I know that London isn’t exactly running thin on the farmers’ market front, but I couldn’t possibly talk about the best things to do in Clapham without giving a shoutout to Venn Street Market. You only need to set foot on a dating app for 30 seconds to know that every Londoners ideal Saturday morning involves wandering round a local farmers’ ma...
We’re sticking with the Venn Street vibe for the next entry on our list of the best things to do in Clapham, and we’re paying a visit to Venn Street Records; a vital cog in the rather eclectic machine that is Clapham’s nightlife scene. From the vinyl records, neon signs, and rock ‘n’ roll artwork adorning the walls to the daily live music line-up, ...
Next up, we’re heading slightly off the beaten track and towards a true hidden gem of Clapham South, Abbeville Village. This quaint little pocket of London is the perfect location for two of my favourite weekend activities: mindless mooching and people-watching. We’re talking cutesy coffee shops, darling delicatessens, boujee boutiques, gorgeous ga...
Clapham is also home to one of the UK’s leading not–for–profit arts and education organisations, Studio Voltaire. Founded in 1994 in a disused tram-shed, this artist-run space now stands proudly on Nelsons Row and is beloved by locals. They showcase a huge variety of work and take pride in championing emerging and under-represented artists. Their e...
Last up on our list of the ten best things to do in Clapham is one for the history fiends out there. Unveiled at a ceremony back in 1906 as a gift from Alexander Glegg (Mayor at the time), the Clapham Clocktowercontinues to be one of the most historical sites in Clapham so be sure to have a quick peek if you’re passing by. It stands proudly onThe P...
This is the epicentre of Clapham, and there’s nothing more local than taking a stroll or heading for a jog in the common’s leafy surrounds. With all that space available, it’s the perfect location for the South West Four Festival (SW4), RTRN II Dance and many other London festivals which take place on the common each summer.
