Camden High Street

Camden High Street is a short stretch of road (less than 500m long, forming part of the A400) in Camden Town, in London, England. It forms a major shopping centre, features major music venues at either end (the Camden Palace at the south and the Electric Ballroom and Underworld at the north), and several markets, collectively referred to as Camden Market. The area is especially busy on Sundays - when the Electric Ballroom is used as a marketplace. The road is a favourite haunt of goths.

It is a one-way street only allowing vehicular traffic to travel northwards (southbound traffic uses the parallel Camden Street).

Travelling north, traffic emerges from Hampstead Road (A400) into the High Street at the junction with Eversholt Street, by Mornington Crescent tube station.

The northern extremity of Camden High Street lies just north of the five-way junction formed with Parkway , the southern end of Chalk Farm Road , Kentish Town Road (where the A400 continues) and Camden Road . Camden Town tube station is on the corner between Camden High Street and Kentish Town Road.
