Situated in the heart of Hackney Central lies a unique hangout for the trendy; MOTH Club. What used to be an exclusive meeting point for ex-forces servicemen now serves as a haunt for anyone looking for a good night out in the eastern part of town. Containing a more varied assortment of events than your bog-standard nightclub, MOTH Club can boast that it holds everything from cabaret nights, bingo, and stand up-comedy shows as well as the live and electronic music events that you would normally associate with an club like this. Speaking of live music events, MOTH has a plethora of up-and-coming bands that frequently grace their intimate stage, performing within arm’s reach of the packed-out crowd – which is all part of the appeal. The club also offers 80’s nights under the moniker “Dancing in the Dark” and ABBA events with”ABBA After Midnight”- both of these fuelled by a mix of nostalgia and passion and both giving you the chance to sing along to some classic tunes from over the years.
