Room Bookings

Please see our new room booking policy under COVID 19 here

MayDay Rooms is a collectively-run space and is based on different sources of funding. We offer free meeting space to unfunded groups that are involved in radical political organising and/or promote radical self-education. To be able to support that we ask for a donation from all other groups, based on their status (Politically organising or not, regardless of how difficult to judge this is!) and duration of the meeting.

If you would like to further get involved at Mayday Rooms we welcome collaborations with like-minded projects and encourage critical as well as creative engagement with our archival material in relation to ongoing political and cultural struggles. So if you have an ideas for a project, intervention, publication, interruption, exhibition, event or anything else we might not have thought of, please get in touch please email in-formation [AT] maydayrooms.org.
