Magazine: The Club

Presented by Gok Wan & Martin Rab.

In this grey world of sleet and unprecentedly right wing politics and mindless watching of Strictly Come Dancing, here’s a much-needed injection of COLOUR and LIGHT and IMAGINATION. 

A new gay night! It’s always exciting when a new night comes along. It makes Lindsay Lohan put down her quadruple vodka coke and look up from her Instagram. She lives in Soho, dontchano, so new gay night are of interest to old Linds.

And this one looks like it’s gonna be a CORKER. It’s called “Magazine”, presumably to convey the sense of frenetic glamour that, of course, comes with working at a magazine *hurriedly minimizes Facebook tab*

On 3rd December, so in less than two weeks’ time, it’s descending on the effortlessly trendy Steel Yard! Now we, and probably many of you, know The Streel Yard as the hedonistic home of hairy beary gay night Brut, but they do a bunch of other stuff too. If you haven’t been, let us paint a picture – sort of like the interior of the All Saints flagship store, crossed with the interior of the Slytherin dungeons. Get the picture? Good.

Magazine is the brainchild of none other than…Gok Wan! Off the telly! Yes! He decided London was in need of some new blood. “The London club scene fast becoming a memory.” he said. WELL we wouldn’t go THAT far, but we see where you’re coming from Gok. “Once upon a time the nightlife in our fabulous capital was a thriving hub of fun and glamour,” he continues “But we seem to have lost our nocturnal heartbeat. Magazine is committed to rectifying this. We have a line up of top DJs and we are breathing new life into the lungs of club land.”

Hurrah! The top (and perhaps vers, and bottom) DJs Gok speaks of, are Charlie Holland, The Mac Twins, Goldierocks and, doing the main set, Gok himself! It’s promoted by nightlife aficionado Martin Rab, and hosted by Bunny Galore, the infamous Johanna Londinium, and more!

• Magazine is on Saturday 3rd December at The Steel Yard, 13 – 16 Allhallows Lane, EC4R 3UL. 10pm – 3am.
