XOYO opens
London's exciting new venue
Following a few years in which London's favourite clubs have fallen, or at least wobbled like a 6am casualty, good news arrives in the shape of the freshly painted XOYO.
Opening on Wednesday 15th September and just minutes from Old Street station, it's the brainchild of the creative forces behind Field Day, Eat Your Own Ears and Bugged Out!, a fact reflected in the formidable nights already confirmed there; Bugged Out, Urban Nerds, Neon Noise Project and Durrr to name just a few.
Although an 800 capacity venue, a 450 mid-sized live room will also welcome bands such as Mount Kimbie and Dan Deacon via promoters like Eat Your Own Ears and Upset the Rhythm.
