Nike and Palace Open Manor Place, a London Hub for Sport, Creativity and Community

Nike and Palace Skateboards, the renowned London-based streetwear and skateboarding brand, are redefining collaboration with the grand opening of Manor Place, a new cultural landmark in South London.  

The historic venue, built in 1895 and steeped in sport heritage, is being revitalized as a vibrant hub for sport, creativity and community — open to all six days a week, free of charge. 

“We had an idea of creating a large space for the community that would be about skateboarding and sport, and a space you could generally hang out in,” says Lev Tanju, Co-Founder and Creative Director, Palace. “When we spoke about the project, we knew Nike was the only brand in the world that could make something like this happen. We want Manor Place to be something positive for London — a city that has given us so much — and we’re really excited to give something back.”

Manor Place is designed to inspire the next generation of creatives, skaters and football players through three distinct zones: The Park and The Cage, The Front Room, and The Residency. 

The worlds of Nike and Palace come to life in The Park and The Cage: a world-class polished concrete skatepark with ramps, ledges and benches that sit directly above a one-of-a-kind underground football cage — creating a rotating playground system and unique, multi-use space.

The Park includes architectural nods to Palace’s most cherished London skate spots — Southbank, Stockwell and the much-missed Victoria Benches — in a versatile space that will host skate jams, girl-only sessions and special event programming. On game days, The Cage will surface from below ground, playing host to invitational three-on-three seasonal football leagues, community competitions and open play.   

“Manor Place is important for the next generation because it’s so accessible,” says Lenna Gunning-Williams, an English footballer and Nike athlete. “It’s going to be a place where people can connect — and it’s not just for footballers, it’s for skaters and creatives too." 

The Front Room showcases work from emerging and established London artists while serving as a cultural hub for workshops, panel talks and pop-ups. It also doubles as a retail space for exclusive Nike x Palace drops.  

The Residency offers studio space to six emerging creatives on a nine-month rotating basis, empowering the next generation of talent. Residents participate free of charge and have the opportunity to exhibit their work in The Front Room. Applications for the next intake open in spring 2026. 

"Lev and I wanted to try and create something new, something that’s really community based. That’s a word that is often bandied about without any real meaning behind it,” says Gareth Skewis, Co-Founder, Palace. “I want Manor Place to be somewhere safe and friendly where people can skate, play football and discover new things — all just down the road from where Palace was founded.”

The opening of Manor Place marks the beginning of what’s to come between Nike and Palace. It also coincides with the partners’ first product line, the P90 collection, which is inspired by early 2000s football culture and designed for both skaters and football fans.  

The collection features shell suits, football jerseys and trainers with bold P90 graphics, as well as signature hoodies, tracksuits, sweaters, shorts and T-shirts adorned with the Palace Tri-Ferg and layered Nike Swoosh. 

The P90 collection will be available globally October 31 at palaceskateboards.com and Palace retail locations. P90 footwear will also be available via SNKRS in select regions.

Manor Place will mark its official public opening November 11 at 33 Manor Place.
