About The Windmill
Welcome to The Windmill venues in London—two historic spaces known for intimate performances and unique cabaret heritage. The Windmill Brixton (Brixton Hill, SW2) hosts intimate, standing-oriented gigs with limited seating and a wheelchair viewing area. The Windmill Soho (Great Windmill Street, W1D) offers a larger, multi-tiered space with a central circular stage and a storied cabaret history. Both venues are active hubs for indie artists and live performance enthusiasts. Below you’ll find seating information, parking guidance, transit options, and trusted affiliate recommendations for nearby hotels and dining to help you plan a smooth night out.
Seating, capacity, and layout
The Windmill Brixton: Capacity around 150. It’s primarily a pub with standing gigs and a small amount of seating on a first-come basis. A dedicated wheelchair viewing area is available for accessible viewing near the stage.
The Windmill Soho: Capacity around 350 after renovation. The main space features a central circular stage with three levels—the basement Theatre, the upper Palais De Luxe area, and the ground-floor diner—creating varied sightlines and atmospheres for different performances.
Parking and transport
The Windmill Brixton has no on-site parking. Limited on-street parking is available nearby; a paid car park sits behind the pub but is not part of the venue. Brixton is served by the Victoria line (Brixton Tube) roughly 1 mile away, plus multiple bus routes including 45, 59, 109, 118, 133, 159, 250, and 333 for convenient access.
