About this space

A compact basement venue that provides an intimate, room-scale environment in a subterranean layout.

Design: The interior uses dark-painted walls and low ceilings to create a compact, club-like scale. The lighting is practical and directional, keeping the central floor visually prominent.

Features: The venue includes an installed PA system and fixed speakers, a clear open area suitable as a dancefloor, air conditioning and venue Wi‑Fi. The layout allows space for DJ kit and basic back-of-house storage.

Ideal for: Small groups seeking a relaxed, music-led evening that combines standing socialising and dancing.

What sets it apart: A permissive bring-your-own-DJ policy that allows organisers to book external DJs.

FAQ

The venue would usually have its own DJ, and, as it would be open as usual, any outside DJ would need to be agreed in line with the music policy.

You’re welcome to bring your own DJ. Alternatively, the venue can provide a DJ for an additional cost, or you can use the venue’s Spotify setup.

A minimum bar spend can be agreed, which may allow the venue hire rate to be reduced or, in some cases, waived altogether.
