Incineration Festival

For getting to Camden, London's public transport is usually easiest. The closest Tube station is Camden Town (Northern Line), just a short walk from most festival venues. Nearby stations like Chalk Farm (Northern Line) and Camden Road (Overground) offer alternative routes. If you arrive by train at a major London hub (King's Cross St Pancras, Euston, or Paddington), you can reach Camden in just a few minutes via the Tube. Buses also run frequently, connecting Camden with central London and beyond. Be sure to tap in and out with an Oyster card or contactless payment to use the Tube, Overground and buses seamlessly.

London's airports all provide reliable travel into the city. From Heathrow, a quick option is the Heathrow Express to Paddington followed by a Tube to King's Cross, then the Northern Line to Camden. Gatwick has the Gatwick Express to Victoria, or trains into London Bridge – both within easy Tube reach of Camden. The Stansted Express runs to Liverpool Street, from where the Northern Line can take you on. Luton Airport offers Thameslink trains to St Pancras, then the Northern Line. Even from London City Airport, travelers take the DLR to Bank and switch to the Tube northbound. Overall, trains and Tube lines are usually faster and more convenient than buses for reaching Camden from any airport.

If you drive, note that Camden sits inside London's Congestion Charge and Ultra Low Emission zones on weekdays, and fees may apply. Main driving routes include the M1 and A41 running into central London from the north. Parking in Camden itself is limited, so consider parking in outer areas or at National Rail station lots (for example Watford or Wembley Park) and taking the Tube in. If you must park nearby, use official car parks or paid street parking, and be mindful of residential permit zones. Always plan your parking or pick-up spot in advance; apps and online maps can help find available spaces.

Camden and north London have plenty of accommodations. You can find hotels, hostels, and guesthouses in Camden itself or the surrounding King's Cross, Euston or Islington areas. It is wise to book early – rooms fill up fast when big events are on. Staying close to a Tube or Overground station (like Camden Town, Mornington Crescent or Kentish Town) means quick access to the festival and the chance to explore London easily. If you are on a budget, look for hostels or budget hotels in Camden, or consider rental apartments. In any case, planning your stay ahead of time allows you to focus on enjoying the music when the event comes.
