About this venue

Marlborough Sports Garden is a public outdoor sports venue near London Bridge, with a bookable football pitch, netball court, sand court, multi-use hard-court area, table tennis and covered seating. Bankside Open Spaces Trust accepts event-hire requests for the whole garden, while PlayFootball offers one-off pitch booking and bespoke corporate events. Whole-site events normally require five weeks' notice. The park is free to enter and open 8am-9pm, but during school term weekdays 3pm-5.30pm are reserved for schoolchildren and the garden is closed to other adults. The linked BOST hire pack lists event capacities of 750 for unlicensed activities and 500 for licensed activities; confirm the applicable limit for your event and layout.
