David Bowie' schildhood home to open to the public in 2027

David Bowie was not only one of the most innovative voices in 20th-century music but also a cultural icon who left an unforgettable mark on the world of art. Now, for the first time, his childhood home in Bromley, East London, will open its doors to the public, giving fans and visitors a unique opportunity to uncover the roots of this legendary figure.

2027 will mark a special milestone for all David Bowie fans: his childhood home in Bromley, East London, will finally open to the public thanks to the efforts of the Heritage of London Trust.

David Bowie, one of the most revolutionary and influential artists of the 20th century, left behind an unparalleled cultural legacy, and this initiative aims to preserve the place where his creative genius was born. The house at 4 Plaistow Grove has been carefully restored to its original 1960s appearance, providing visitors with an immersive journey that recreates the environment and atmosphere in which Bowie spent his childhood and teenage years.

It was within these walls that young David began shaping his art and identity, eventually composing some of his most iconic works, including the legendary "Space Oddity". For nearly two decades, this place was the heartbeat of his personal and artistic growth.

Nicola Stacey, Director of the Heritage of London Trust, emphasized the importance of this project:

"David Bowie was deeply connected to London, his hometown, and although his career took him all over the world, he always kept his roots close. This house is not just a historic site but an opportunity to inspire new generations through his extraordinary story".

For those interested in learning more about the opening and upcoming events, official updates will be shared through dedicated channels. This is a unique opportunity to reconnect with and celebrate the life and artistry of one of music's most iconic legends.
