Description
Beyond its ballroom history, the venue operates as a medium-sized space built around clear live sound. Its lineup features touring concerts and indie gigs alongside late club events. With very little seating, the main floor keeps the focus on standing room, while an upper balcony supplies clear sightlines to the stage. Well-sized facilities, a stocked bar, three nearby parking areas, and short walks from Oxford Road train station make getting in and out straightforward.
