History
Originally opened as a music hall in 1900, the 1,250-person capacity Clapham Grand has previously served as a cinema, bingo hall, and nightclub at stages of its history.
The Clapham Grand is more than a Victorian-era listed building in London: it is an icon of the city’s cultural legacy. That legacy is now reclaimed and enriched with a restoration, refurbishment and return to form.
Refurbishing the Clapham Grand has been a herculean undertaking, demanding of passion and vision. Revamping the sound system, lighting, staging and behind-the-scenes facilities was a labour of both preservation and reinvention. With work now completed, The Grand is again poised to retake its place as a jewel in the crown of music venues. With its three floors replete with cascading balconies, ornate plasterwork and royal boxes, The Clapham Grand echoes a bygone era while ushering in the next with its stunning high-tech refurb.
