Born in Brixton and raised in Bromley, David Bowie’s journey through the city mirrored his artistic evolution. Bowie traversed London’s diverse neighbourhoods. He recorded ground breaking albums in Soho, lived in upscale Marylebone and Chelsea with various collaborators, and explored counterculture in Beckenham through his community-based ”arts lab”.

Covent Garden played a pivotal role, hosting Bowie’s performances with the experimental trio Feathers and later becoming home to clubs like Blitz and Hell, epicentres of the New Romantic movement Bowie heavily influenced.

Although Bowie left the UK in 1974, London continued to influence his work. His transformations from mod to glam to New Romantic reflected the city’s ever-changing cultural landscape. This guide charts 61 locations associated with Bowie’s life and career in the capital
