Following an impressive four-year run and due to popular demand, The Curling Club will return to London’s Southbank Centre until 6 February 2025. It will also, for the first time, glide into London’s iconic Vinegar Yard in November, opening on 1 November 2024 – 28 February 2025.
At both sites, guests can enjoy the ultimate winter experience. Suitable for couples, families, friends and corporate work parties, guests can expect to enjoy state-of-the-art curling sheets, cosy decor and a vast range of delicious food and beverage options. New, exciting entertainment, including resident DJs, glitterball dancers and singers, will also be frolicking about the space to help create the most spectacular and joyful experience for all.
London’s Southbank Centre venue, with a capacity of 250, will continue to boast the most dashing of après ski nostalgia and be a much-favoured destination for winter entertainment. Open between 11 am – 11 pm daily; all will continue to enjoy the ultimate winter experience in its most competitive form with live entertainment, music, and alpine-inspired street food, beverages from Cazcabel, Pernod Ricard and Coors, as well as seasonal cocktails.
Opening its doors at the new site at Vinegar Yard from November 1st, 2024, to February 28th, 2025, this larger, brand-new location with a 600-person capacity will offer an enhanced winter experience that guests have come to love over the years.
A stone’s throw from London Bridge Station, alongside the Shard and part of Flea London’s Vintage and Makers market that offers a treasure trove of Christmas gift ideas, the Curling Club will offer state-of-the-art curling lanes, cosy decor and a vast range of delicious food and beverage options from vendors including Nanny Bill’s and the Untitled Sandwich Shop. Open every day from noon to late, groups of all sizes can also enjoy a feast of wintery street food and drink, complete with live entertainment and music.
For the first time, the Curling Club will invite guests to use new granite stones used by top curlers worldwide. The compact diameter of each stone encourages a smooth delivery for enhanced precision and control. Sustainably built, this means they are also incredibly durable, and the Curling Club’s on-site coaches will be able to help individuals perfect their technique.
Eve Muirhead, a four-time Olympian and now Team GB’s Chef de Mission until the Milano-Cortina Olympic Winter Games in 2026, continues her role as The Curling Club ambassador and will host events across both sites. After leading Team GB to a gold medal as its skip at the Beijing 2022 Olympics, guests can now emulate this by gliding stones down a fit-for-purpose sheet, providing an authentic experience without the need for ice or specialist footwear.
Rebecca Brindle, Head of Commercial, Southbank Centre, said, “We’re pleased to welcome The Curling Club back to the Southbank Centre as part of our Winter season for another year of lightly competitive curling in an après ski setting.”
Neil Benson, Commercial Director, Vinegar Yard, added, “Having enjoyed The Curling Club experience at the Southbank Centre as a customer we’re excited to be able to work with the team to offer Vinegar Yard’s spin on the curling experience.”
