Camden Rocks festival

Camden Town has long been the hub of the UK’s rock ‘n’ roll scene. The British music business might largely be run out of plush West London offices, but it’s in the bars and clubs of Camden where the raw talent which fuels the industry is incubated and developed, where the buzz on the world’s hottest new bands is amplified from a whisper to a scream. 

Festival organiser Chris McCormack – formerly the driving force behind Creation Records ‘Britrock’ quartet 3 Colours Red and the promoter behind the Barfly’s hugely successful Friday night club Jubilee – salutes Camden’s illustrious past and glowing future with a showcase of some of the country’s finest young musical talent, continuing the borough’s well-earned reputation as London’s most vibrant live scene.

This year, Camden Rocks is BACK. Back to shine a light on the next generation of emerging stars and provide a much needed day of essential rock ‘n’ roll action.
