Camden Market

Camden Market is actually a group of markets including Camden Lock Market, Camden Stables Market, and Camden Canal Market. It's the largest street market in the UK and has been going since the 1970s. Here you can find everything and anything from books, to clothing, to designer jewellery, CDs, food, and alternate fashions. You might even see a few famous musicians, and you'll definitely see some unique fashion statements!

Camden is a lively area full of cafes, pubs, and live music venues. Camden Market is a place to wander and follow your eyes, your ears, and your nose.

Practical Info

Camden is located just north of the centre of London, around Regents Canal, and is easily reached by bus or Tube. Don't even think of driving there and trying to park! The nearest tube station is Camden Town but on Sundays the place is so busy the station is only for arrivals. To leave you need to go to nearby Chalk Farm or Mornington Crescent stations.

A nice walk is from Regent's Park along the canal towpath and into the heart of the market.
