Mentioned in the Domesday Book in 1086, Clapham Common has been a part of the tapestry of London’s history for more than a millennia.

Once a swamp, later the meeting place of William Wilberforce’s slavery-crushing Clapham Sect, it is now one of the premier green spaces in the city, housing angling and boating lakes, London’s largest bandstand and 200 acres of grassland.

However its when one of the summer festivals pitch up on the Common that it really comes to life, with Lovebox, Ben & Jerry’s and the Metro Weekender all calling it home in recent years.
