It’s official: 2025 is the year of the sauna. If you thought we’d already reached the peak of our hot-box obsession you’d be wrong, because even more saunas are opening in the capital this year.
The Community Sauna Baths has announced two new sites coming to the capital in 2025, with community saunas launching in Walthamstow and Camberwell’s Ruskin Park this spring.
Both sites will have capacity for 50 people across three saunas including a round sauna for aufguss ceremonies – a 15-minute-long ritual where a sauna master uses water and towels to circulate steam around the space.
Like their Hackney and Stratford sites, the new outposts will have community gardens tended by volunteers, and will offer concessions to people receiving universal credit, students and Blue Light Card holders. Sessions will range from £9.50 – £16.50, and they will also offer free NHS sessions to people who have been prescribed them.
If you can’t wait to get your sweat on, you can pre-book sessions to both the Walthamstow and Camberwell saunas; pre-booking will help fund the building of both sites and some sessions are available at heavily discounted rates. Find out more about the pre-sale here.
