Club Ugly takes place on the first Tuesday of every month at The Social on Little Portland Street.
Every night will feature three up-and-coming acts from London and beyond, a talented DJ spinning the black circle and quality entertainment in between bands so you won't even have time to think about getting bored. We support exciting new music that won't scare your parents too much.
Doors open at 7pm, music starts at 8.30pm sharp, featured DJs from 10.30pm until midnight so you've got plenty of time to enjoy the whole party and still jump on the last train back to Stratford.
Check out our 'Freebies' and 'Interview' sections to become more acquainted with upcoming acts before you commit an evening to enjoying them.
