The Best Seat for Wimbledon in Islington Square, London
Centre court returns to Islington Square this summer, and the Boulevard is set to become one of the best spots in the neighbourhood to catch every serve, rally and match point in North London.
Surrounded by some of the Square’s best food and drink spots, it’s easy to settle in.
From 29 June to 12 July, live Wimbledon matches will be shown daily on the open-air screen at Islington Square, located on Upper Street between Angel and Highbury & Islington.
Think deck chairs, strawberries and cream, and that familiar buzz when a big point lands - all without leaving Islington.
Across the two weeks, the space builds as the days go on.
Weekend markets bring an extra layer to the atmosphere, while on-screen moments, competitions and pop-ups keep things moving between matches.
Pick up something to eat from Megan’s or OMNOM, grab a coffee from Selv Roastery, or head to The Bottle Cocktail Shop for something colder as the matches unfold.
Set within the Square’s open-air Boulevard in the heart of Islington, Wimbledon here plays out with glasses clinking, eyes fixed on the screen, and a crowd of all ages rising and falling with every point.
