Through the Studio Doors: Meet the Makers of Cockpit Bloomsbury

Friday 2 October, 11 am-12 pm
Tickets: £10

Join the team from Cockpit Studios for a behind-the-scenes tour of Cockpit Bloomsbury as part of the 2026 Bloomsbury Festival.

Cockpit is the only remaining specialist craft studio space in London, and their historic building in Cockpit Yard, Bloomsbury, has been home to thousands of makers throughout the charity’s 40-year history.

Step through the studio doors to discover both the unusual history of Cockpit Bloomsbury (Samuel Pepys visited the site when it was a cockfighting arena!) and the extraordinary craft objects currently being made at Cockpit. Meet makers in their studios, explore a hidden gem of creativity, and leave inspired.

All ticket sales support Cockpit’s work as a registered charity.
