Did you know

Electrowerkz has hosted Slimelight every Saturday since the venue was just a squatted warehouse with no doors or electricity in 1987. Slimelight is now recognised as the world's longest-running goth and dark-scene club night.

Local tip

The venue runs a rotating roster of distinct club nights (Slimelight, BASH, Torture Garden and others) with very different crowds and dress expectations, so check which specific night is on rather than assuming a single house style.
