Following temporary weekend closures of Primrose Hill this summer, we will be starting a phased re-opening of the gates from this weekend. The park will continue to be closed at 10pm on Friday and Saturday evenings for the next two weeks, but will be open on Sunday 21st Nov and Sunday 28th Nov. The following weekend, the park will be open on the evenings of Saturday 4th and Sunday 5th Dec and, from then on, the park will once again be open 24 hours a day seven days a week.
The early closure of the park on New Year’s Eve at 10pm will remain in place.
