Covid 19: New lockdown restrictions: we are still open for rehearsal hire but all our onsite classes are cancelled 5 November to 2 December. The Nest pre-school remains open.
Next up: Music and family theatre with Brixton Chamber Orchestra and String Theatre 12 and 13 December (restrictions allowing).
Longfield Hall exists to meet the changing needs of our local community Myatt’s Fields, Camberwell SE5. The Minet family built the hall, which opened in 1889, as a place where the whole community could come together. Longfield Hall Trust is committed to implementing the family’s vision for this and succeeding generations.
The hall is Grade II listed and is run by Longfield Hall Trust, a group of local community volunteers.

Hire us
Longfield hall is increasingly used a space for theatre, music and dance performances. We are keen to provide space to nurture emerging artists, new writing and choreography.
We have two halls on offer to hire – the upper hall and lower hall. Our halls are available for parties, wedding receptions, rehearsals, fitness classes, meetings, film shoots, performances and community events.
