The hugely popular late-night Peckham venue Canavan’s permanently closed its doors last Friday (25th September). Canavan’s is yet another example of a Covid casualty that has hit the hospitality and bar industry over the last couple of months.
Owner Kieran Canavan said in a post on Facebook "With no help from the government and after having talks with the landladies they are refusing to reduce the rent until the virus is dealt with," wrote Canavan. Canavan’s which is popular for its late-night music that goes on into the early hours of the music (closing at 5am) Canavan went on to say "As you know we are a nighttime club and only get busy after 10 PM—there is no way I can survive,".
