Description
Setlist is the new riverside destination shaking up London nights - taking over the iconic Somerset House terrace with unbeatable Thames views, live performances, and an atmosphere that’s pure magic day to night.
This is where the city’s most exciting talent takes the stage - think live artists that bring the energy, DJs that keep the dance floor moving, and bold art installations that turn the whole space into an immersive experience. The menu? Elevated plates from some of London’s most talented female chefs, paired with perfectly mixed drinks to keep the night flowing.
Launched in Somerset House’s landmark 25th year, Setlist isn’t just a bar - it’s a cultural playground designed for London’s creative crowd. From summer nights with friends to private parties and corporate events with edge, it’s the spot where food, music, and art fuse into one unforgettable night out.
Doors open, lights up, volume on, Setlist is where London turns up the heat by the river.
