THE NIGHT OVERGROUND IS COMING BACK & HERE’S WHERE TO GO FOR LATE NIGHT FUN

It’s been off since the start of the pandemic in 2020 but now the Night Tube is finally back and the Night Overground is following suit, with a late service on the Highbury & Islington – New Cross Gate line running on Friday and Saturday nights from 17th December. Not only will the Night Overground make it safer for people who have to travel in the early hours of the morning, it’ll make getting back from all those festive nights out a whole lot easier. In anticipation of the return late-night orange line, we’re rounded up the best places on the Overgorund that you can go for a late night boogie and midnight munch.
