About us

Walthamstow is at the top of the Victoria line and at the heart of the action. We might only have a corner of the dancefloor that is London, but we aim to pull shapes like our lives depend on it. This blog is about telling you what’s hot in Walthamstow, E17.

Walthamstow Scene started in November 2010 and is written and edited by Nick Bason (@nickbason).

Walthamstow isn’t perfect, nowhere is. But there is a lot happening locally, and an area can only thrive if people feel a part of the community. Hopefully, we can contribute in a tiny way to that. Even if we can’t, at least we can tell you about some awesome gigs happening right on your doorstep.

Below is a video about our involvement in The Stow Festival.
