CAMDEN TAKEOVER
​The mammoth Slam Dunk Camden Takeover is back for another year! We’re back to take over 3 iconic Camden venues on Saturday 23rd May from 11pm - 3am. One wristband, multiple venues and a whole lot of fun!
​
There will be a shuttle bus service running from the festival in Hatfield to Camden (10.30pm - 1am) to drop you right at the heart of the afterparty action. Tickets for the shuttle can be booked HERE.
The venues are Electric Ballroom, The Black Heart, and The Underworld .
​
They're all within easy walking distance, so once the festival is over, hop on the shuttle to Camden and then pick your poison. Each venue will be playing host to different acts and DJs - scroll down to see what's happening at every venue.​​

Please note this event is strictly 18+ and a valid ID will need to be shown to gain entry.
