About Electric Ballroom
Electric Ballroom is a storied two-storey live music venue in the heart of Camden Town. With room for up to 1,500 guests on the main floor and a limited balcony offering accessibility seating, it’s long been a hub for rock, indie acts, and club nights. The venue also features an indoor market vibe, adding a unique flavor to show nights. We’ve got you covered with reliable info on seating, transport, parking, and nearby lodging and dining to help you secure your tickets with ease.
Originally opening as The Buffalo Club in 1938 and later known as The Carousel, the venue was renamed Electric Ballroom in 1978 and remains a staple of London's live music scene, hosting legendary acts and contemporary favorites alike.

For accessibility, there are wheelchair spaces and balcony seating options via special tickets. Parking is limited to metered street spaces, with nearby car parks a short walk away—public transit is typically the best choice for show nights.
