Peckham Renaissance: South London boozer teams up with Hennessy for live music series

From live sets by rising voices to music that spans continents and genres, The Peckham Renaissance is a rallying call for London’s creative community.

This summer, Hennessy and The Prince of Peckham in Clayton Road are joining forces to bring back an iconic music showcase.

The programme will run across four consecutive Fridays in June, bringing together live music, culture, and community under one roof.

Clement Ogbonnaya, founder of Peckham Renaissance and Prince of Peckham, said: “For us, Prince of Peckham has always been more than just a pub – it’s a cultural cornerstone and a platform for voices that deserve to be heard.”

The full line-up is curated by Dankie Sounds and will be announced in the coming weeks.

Expect electric sounds, high-energy performances, and flavourful Hennessy cocktails, including their signature take on the margarita: the delicious Henny Rita.

But that’s not all – for any budding DJs, Dankie Sounds will be offering free guest DJ slots through an exciting competition running weekly via social media.

Music enthusiasts just need to upload a mix onto Soundcloud and winners will be decided based on the four most played sets.

Participants must include the hashtag: #PeckhamRenaissance #DankieSounds to be considered.

Mr Ogbonnaya said: “At a time when London is losing so many of its nightlife institutions and creative spaces, it’s more important than ever to protect what matters to the community.

“The Peckham Renaissance is about creating space for local talent, celebrating the sounds that are shaping our future, and doing it all with partners like Hennessy and Dankie Sounds who truly understand the value of culture.”

Tickets for The Peckham Renaissance are on general sale from today.
