Solomons' Yard is Back!

Camden Town started back in 1791 when a five-street village was built on an estate belonging to Sir Charles Pratt, the 1st Earl of Camden. Fast forward a few decades and Camden became a very important location during the early development of the railways. This was for a number of reasons. Firstly, London’s first intercity railway line – the London & Birmingham Railway – ran right through the town; and secondly, its proximity to the canal made Camden a perfect stopping point for the interchange of goods between London and the rest of the world.

Music and summer are like an old married couple. Whether you’ve just come back from your latest festival or you’re hungry for gigs outside of your usual Spotify playlist, we’ve found some cracking gigs to keep you in the perfect summer mood. Make sure to book your tickets now before they sell out!

The best two weeks of the year have arrived and simultaneously brought out the sunshine along with it. Wimbledon. Strawberries & cream and Pimm’s are the talk of the town for a fortnight as we all watch in anticipation who will take the trophies.

The 50th anniversary of Stonewall is fast approaching this Friday with Pride in London following next weekend. We're only halfway through the year and there have been some monumental moments in LGBT+ history. From Taiwan legalising same-sex marriage to queer representation in the media growing to the holy city of Amritsar, India holding their first pride parade.

Inventors of the dad jokes, dad jeans and even dad hats. Dad’s or whatever you call your parental figures are silent heroes. And if you’ve ended up on this post then you’ve already got an idea in mind for a present for your dad: he’s a Camden fanatic.

Thank the lord, summer has officially arrived with longer days and even better vibes. This month is the most diverse yet with South American artists hitting Camden for European tours, two showcases and of course, up and coming talent.
