The 4 Best Roller Disco in London
An LA import in a power station, a Tottenham institution and skate-dine rinks: London's best roller discos.
In short: our top picks are Flipper's Roller Boogie Palace, Roller Nation and Renaissance Rooms. 4 places in total, chosen on merit, with the full reasoning below.
Roller disco is having a full nostalgic revival in London, and it is more fun than any grown adult expects. Flipper’s brought its Studio-54-on-wheels energy from Los Angeles to a White City power station, Roller Nation has kept Tottenham skating for years, and the leisure-centre and pop-up nights fill in the rest. Skates, a DJ and a mirror ball are all it takes. Book the evening club sessions for the full disco, or a daytime family skate if you are easing in.

Before you book
Sessions are ticketed by time slot and include skate hire, with weekend evenings the busiest, so book ahead. Many venues run all-ages sessions in the day and over-18s club nights later on, so check the age policy for your slot. Wear something you can move in and take it steady for the first few laps.
