The HMV Forum started life in 1934 as an Art Deco theatre, then known as The London Forum. Located in North London, it is easily accessible by tube-just two minutes walk from Kentish Town Underground station. There is a large standing space downstairs and unreserved seating on the upstairs balcony.
After a £1.5million refurbishment in 2007, the venue now boasts an increased capacity of 2350 in total, as well as a new bar, new sound system and lighting rig. The venue hosts concerts during most nights throughout the year.
There are bag searches when entering the venue, with no video cameras, professional cameras or recording devices allowed. Food or drink is also not to be taken into the venue, and there is no re-admittance. There is wheelchair access and accommodation available.
