"Who hasn't dreamed of turning brutalist icon the Barbican into a nightclub? Even the least architecture-nerdy among us must surely have imagined how the labyrinthine space would look like as a club, with earth-rumbling beats and flashy strobes among its handsome curves, jagged edges and general rugged charm. In recent years, however, a Barbican club hasn't just been a thing of dreams: the multi-arts venue has actually been holding quite a few late-night parties."
"First up will be a night by Eastern Margins, a collective that celebrates the music of East and South East Asian artists (and that region's diaspora). One of Time Out's top club nights in London, Eastern Margins' Barbican night will feature bedroom DJ nick cheo, hyped genre-blender KOLLIN, Rapper Jianbo and alt-pop singer MEYY. Eastern Margins' night at the Barbican will be on Friday February 20 and you can get tickets for the event here (general sale starts at 10am on Friday January 23)."
The Barbican will host 'Anyone Can Dance', a series of 18+ late-night parties running until 3am at ClubStage, transforming the Level -1 Foyer into a dancefloor. Five events are planned for 2026, celebrating dance and diaspora. The first night on Friday February 20 will be curated by Eastern Margins, a collective spotlighting East and South East Asian artists and their diaspora, and will feature bedroom DJ nick cheo, genre-blending KOLLIN, rapper Jianbo and alt-pop singer MEYY. General sale for the Eastern Margins night begins at 10am on Friday January 23. The 2026 programme expands on a smaller 2025 late-night offering that included sold-out events and a Boiler Room car-park rave.
