ABOUT US

Four levels below ground, and right next to Tottenham Court Road tube station, we have created HERE - a cutting edge 2000 capacity space to host incredible live concerts, club nights, comedy, arts and culture; alongside high-profile events, launches, fashion shows and film screenings.
Just round the corner on the infamous Denmark Street where the Sex Pistols lived, the Rolling Stones recorded and David Bowie started his first band, sits The Lower Third - a neighbourhood bar and fiercely independent grass roots music venue championing emerging talent and the unbridled spirit of rock & roll; with a cafe, world class cocktail bar and 200 capacity basement club.
