This is a Spot! Great new venue, which was super easy to find with plenty of amenities inside. Wood Lane tube station (Hammersmith and Circle Line) was 2 minutes away and White City (Central Line) was 4 minutes away. Drop only here and would have to park in Westfield shopping centre if coming via car.

This venue is beautiful. Apart from the converted historic music venues this is probably one of the most beautiful venues in London. The sound is really good here but it is very flat so if you’re short you will not be able to see anything unless you’re at the very front. More venues need to have a Brixton floor. It sounds silly but the bathrooms are amazing in that there’s a lot of them and they’re impeccably clean. The ground level is just bar and merch with the stage being upstairs with a bar at the back. If you’re driving - park in Westfield car park B as you’ll get in and out super quickly. The only downside is that it’s right on a ‘main’ road so going there and leaving you’re literally barred from crossing the road until the light is green which at the end of the gig can slow things down. All in all great venue though!
