No Way is it charging (although no proof)


Great Exhibition is sold out (as last year) - It's fancy Dress though and some people love that :)

What was the problem with House of Tippler? why a waste of time? Just curious, but dont particularly like the place.

It's always a good idea to keep a list of the free entry pubs on NYE just in case it doesn't work out for one reason or another. ?5 is actually just the price of a pint - but that's not my issue with tickets.

Probably no more than about 40 people in there,

Absolutely no effort made by the bar as it was a "special" NYE night.....


To be honest it seems like the lane has gone quite downhill for nights out

I used to go nearly every weekend about 10 yrs ago, the vibe has completely changed!

I generally pass through the lane on weekends & find it nowhere near to how busy it used to be!


I have to say liquorice was my favourite place back then!

To be honest, without going into details I went out by accident.

It's been at least 8yrs since I celebrated NYE away from my home.


I guess I just expected a bit more excitement! Lol


The fiver weren't too bad to pay, but not for a dead night!


I went there about 11.30pm, by 12.30 am I was back home!


I can't see that happening again in a hurry, next year I'll probably snuggle up to my duvet!

I think you could be right about that!


When I was telling my friend about my night she suggested I should've gone to prince of Peckham....

Saying that I'm definitely over 40 but my mind tells me I'm still in my 20's! 😎😜

Lordship Lane was sort of a mini destination a few years ago, and it was pretty buzzy on a Friday and Saturday night... but not really these days. Partly because Peckham has so much more going on, but also I reckon because of the nature of people who tend to move to ED. People in their 40s with kids. Not many carefree 20/30 somethings.

I'm guessing that was written by someone who's never been to the West Norwood Picturehouse. In an organisation with a proud tradition of slow and poor service, they stand out as lowering the standard.

      GALA 2025

      By ms_wilson · Posted

      https://chng.it/YXCH5XXVMY We live near and it’s absolute hell. The noise of the people coming and going from Peckham is the worse. They are so loud and obnoxious. This is my 5th year of this nonsense. People vomiting in my front garden, urinating in my neighbour’s gardens, throwing food into my garden. Screaming waking up my children while waiting for their Ubers. The people that organise this festival are 100% obnoxious. They told us there would be security along our road (there wasn’t). I asked them to put up my family in a hotel but they wouldn’t. It’s actually a human rights infraction for all of us this badly affected. Over the years I have spent so much money trying to be away this weekend but none of us should have to. The data also shows that most people coming are not local residents - so of 3000 tickets sold, hardly any to residents; it’s easy to argue that it disadvantages us residents way more than any conceivable benefit. My elderly neighbours are besides themselves. Every year the setup and striking of the festival blocks off the park during half term, plus the antisocial behaviour and loud noises mean actual children that live here are prevented from using the park and playgrounds. The police initially rejected the license last year… then suddenly changed their mind with no apparent reason… seems legit. Also the GALA team lie and make false statements in their advertising about consulting with us (they don’t they just tell us what is going to happen then are extremely obstinate and rude). My neighbour runs Friends of Peckham Rye and has been totally distressed by all the damage done to recent planting initiatives funded by the local community. GALA do not repair this, GALA pay off Southwark and then Southwark refuse to confirm what they are paid, or how much (if anything) is spent to repair the park.   This needs to be stopped once and for all!!   Petition asking Southwark to stop providing the license to GALA once and for all.    I mean I am sure they will listen to us just like they did about the LTNs…   https://chng.it/YXCH5XXVMY
