Battersea Arts Centre is a Home for the Extraordinary.
Based just 7 minutes from Clapham Junction in the former Battersea Town Hall, BAC has been a home for extraordinary artists, young people and communities for the past 50 years. Come along and see world-class theatre and performance, take part in one of our youth-led academies, hire one of our many spaces or relax in our Bar and Café.
We can’t wait to welcome you to join in our celebrations this anniversary year.
