Catford Constitutional Club is a converted Conservative club in the Catford Broadway theatre building — wood-panelled, high ceilings, real character. Sunday open mic uses the ballroom stage (same one used for the venue's paid bills) and runs a relatively short, tight format.

180 minutes, 18 acts at 10 minutes each. Solo and duo acts dominate; the lack of a drum kit means full bands are rare. Crowd is local Catford and Forest Hill regulars, typically 50-90 people.
