The Pirate Castle

Gilbey's Wharf, Oval Road, Camden Town, NW1 7EA, London, England

The Pirate Castle is an iconic, fully-accessible community centre overlooking the Regent's Canal in the heart of Camden Town. Our characterful Main Hall and Club Room can be hired by families, community groups, clubs and businesses for a wide range of projects and events. 

From dance classes to yoga sessions, book clubs and rehearsals, team-building and strategy days to children's parties and celebrations, you can be sure of a warm welcome!

Our flexible spaces are available to hire for daytime, evening and weekend events at competitive rates. As we don't provide catering, you're welcome to bring in your own food or catering team. We're an unlicensed venue, so alcohol sales are not permitted. However, clients and guests can bring their own alcohol to events.

If you fancy taking to the water, we also provide group paddlesport sessions (kayaking / canoeing) and canal boat cruises.

The Pirate Castle's Camden's community boating charity - ALL of the money raised through venue / facilities hire helps fund our raft of canal-based projects for young people, disability groups and communities most in need.
