London's karting splits between indoor multi-level tracks, which run whatever the weather, and a handful of outdoor circuits on the edges of the city. Big operators run several London venues, and most tracks suit both first-timers and regulars.
The listings here map the tracks across the city with what each offers, so you can find one near you.
What to expect
A typical session is a timed race or a set number of laps, often grouped into qualifying and a final, with your lap times shown on screen. Venues provide helmets and overalls, give a safety briefing, and set minimum ages and heights, so check before you book, especially for younger drivers.
Booking and tips
Karting is pay-to-race and almost always needs booking ahead, particularly for evenings, weekends and group events. Wear comfortable clothes and flat shoes, arrive early for the briefing, and book a multi-race or endurance format if you want more track time.
