##### Camping

Apologies if you heard the offer of camping in the Open Call, it has been subsequently decided that we don't have the capacity to offer the safety/safeguarding required to be responsible for a pop-up campsite.



##### List of  Hostels 

These are options across whole of London, not necessarily close to the venue.

- <a href="https://www.astorhostels.com/hostels/victoria" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Astor Hostel Victoria </a> - There’s options for 4, 5, 6, 8, and 10 bed dorms, plus private rooms, so people could book in groups. 

- <a href="https://www.publove.co.uk/hostels/white-ferry-house" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">White Ferry House</a> is a pub hostel that also looks like a good option, and there’s several hostels from the same brand in London: 

- <a href="https://www.yha.org.uk/hostel/yha-london-central" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">YHA London Central</a> is on the Victoria line, about a 10-15 minute walk from Oxford Circus tube station, which is a few stops away from Victoria station. Good option for people to book in groups.

- <a href="https://staygenerator.com/hostels/london" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Generator London</a> is near King’s Cross, which is on the Victoria line. It looks pretty trendy,  and has things like a bar and games nights: https://staygenerator.com/hostels/london


- <a href="https://www.clinkhostels.com/clink261/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Clink261</a> is also near King’s Cross, and it has a pod room, where you get your own little enclosed bed, so could be good for people travelling alone who want some privacy: 

- <a href="https://zedwellhotels.com/locations/london/piccadilly-circus/zedwell-capsule-hotel/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Zedwell Capsule Hotel</a> in Piccadilly is another Japanese-style capsule hotel where you’ve got your own little pod. It’s a little further away (you’ll need to change tube trains) and a little more expensive too, but looks comfortable and private: 

##### Campervans
We do not advise camper bringing camper vans to London, however if you do contact <a href="https://communityhome.org.uk/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">commUnityHome</a> for possible driveways to park in, or use <a href="https://www.justpark.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">JustPark</a>.
