Broadwick, the visionary creator behind acclaimed venues like Printworks and Depot Mayfield, is set to unveil their latest cultural masterpiece – DRUMSHEDS. This sprawling 608,000 sqft space, situated in North London's Meridian Water zone, is more than just a venue; it's a dynamic fusion of music, arts, culture, and community. DRUMSHEDS, born from Broadwick's belief in the power of 'live' experiences, is poised to become London's largest cultural space, opening its doors this September.
The metamorphosis of this vast warehouse into DRUMSHEDS marks the next phase in Broadwick's evolution as a trailblazer in the events world. The upcoming opening programme is sure to fill the void left by the closing of Printworks, with its blend of unrivalled line-ups. Similar to Printworks, which pioneered the daytime show concept for a safer and more accessible event experience, DRUMSHEDS is set to mirror this concept in their new programme.

What sets DRUMSHEDS apart is its adaptability – a testament to Broadwick's innovative approach. The hybrid areas within DRUMSHEDS can be molded to suit diverse purposes, accommodating everything from complete set builds and fashion shows to music events and brand activations. As the venue maintains the cool industrial allure of its origins, attendees will encounter old lift shafts, loading bays, and vintage machinery.
