The Beach is back, free and open to all!

Open to visitors throughout July and August, Hampstead Beach provides hours of fun right on your doorstep! 

What's more, it will all take place in our brand new weatherproof Dorfman Piazza, with its swanky retractable roof and sides. So just like Centre Court, if it rains, we've literally got you covered! 

We also have a selection of swim nappies (sizes 2-6) and SFP 50 sun cream available to purchase from Box Office.

NB: There's free parking on Finchley Road and adjacent side roads all-day Sunday. More info on our parking page.
