From OUT MAGAZINE (XXL club moves home.)
There’s big news for the many fans of XXL – the award-winning London club night which recently scooped the inaugural Out In The City readers award for ‘Club of the Year’. Already the biggest weekly bears club in the world, promoter Mark Ames has announced that he is relocating the night from its current home, Arcadia on Southwark Street, to his new mega-club, Pulse, ten minutes down the road at 1 Invicta Plaza (SE1 9UF)…
A statement from the club says, “For the past few months XXL has seen unprecedented numbers through its doors so much so it’s been on Mark Ames’s mind to move XXL to the larger venue Pulse to offer a more substantial and pleasurable clubbing experience… with bigger arenas, better sound and bolder lighting.”
“This has now been brought forward due to a structural fault in the two main arches at Arcadia. Due to Health and Safety, Network Rail has asked that the premises be vacated on Monday the 12th March as it is becoming structurally unsound for the use of amplified music – this will give us the opportunity to add additional rooms and nights to XXL making it bigger, bolder and better.”
This Saturday’s night at Arcadia (10 March) will be the final XXL party at its original home, before the move next weekend to the 5,000-capacity Pulse. For more details, keep checking www.xxl-london.com
