We are a group of people who live in London with a common interest: castells. Building castells, or human towers, is a Catalan tradition that dates back more than 200 years.
Castellers of London was born in 2015 with the objective of promoting the tradition of castells in the London area. We hold weekly open rehearsals and organise special events, such as exhibitions and performances, while we keep an active social agenda. Many of the people involved in the group are from Catalonia, but it also includes people from a wide range of nationalities, from different backgrounds, and from all ages, as well as whole families.
CoL continues to grow, and we are currently focused on building towers of 6 levels tall.

Som un grup de gent que viu a Londres amb un interès en comú: els castells. Aquesta tradició catalana de més de 200 anys d'antiguitat va arribar a Londres l'any 2015.
Tenim assajos setmanals oberts a tothom, organitzem tallers i actuacions, i tenim una agenda social molt activa. Moltes de les persones que formen part de la colla són de Catalunya, però també hi participen persones de diverses nacionalitats, procedències i edats, així com famílies senceres.
Els Castellers of London continuem creixent i actualment estem enfocats en la construcció de castells de 6.
