Garden Gigs: The Place It's There + The Sha Sha Shanimals + Hiding

Every Sunday this summer, we’re bringing live music back to The Victoria garden.

Join us from 2–5pm for Garden Gigs: a series of free afternoon shows featuring some of our favourite new artists performing special acoustic and stripped-back sets in our little green corner of Dalston.

Grab a drink, settle in under the vines and discover your new favourite band in one of London’s best-loved pub gardens. Sunshine encouraged but not essential — we’ve got you covered (literally) if the weather decides not to play along.

Free entry all afternoon. Come early, get comfy and spend your Sunday with us.

THE PLACE IT'S THERE:

The Place It’s There are an alternative rock band based in London, mixing their influences of 90s British indie rock bands with 90s/early 2000s American alternative rock bands. The sound is a refreshing, catchy, straightforward approach to what rock n roll could sound like in 2026.

THE SHA SHA SHANIMALS

The Sha Sha Shanimals is a London band formed out of turbulence, de-somnia, delusion and rock n roll. They are Siân Pattenden, Louis Jones, Dan Farrow and Argentinian drumming powerhouse Camila de la Vega. “Think Blondie, Talking Heads and Devo, transported to the anxiety-inducing pavements of London” - Record Collector. “Like The Pretenders in 1980 if Lawrence was writing their songs” - the New Cue.
