Marla Kether presents: Kilengi Dance Party

Advance tickets are now sold out, but the night isn’t. We keep most of our capacity for walk-ups. Come down early, it’s free before 9pm, with tickets available on the door after for £10.

Due to the success of Kilengi in Bristol, we're very excited to be bringing the party to London. Kilengi is a club night curated by DJ, bassist and producer Marla Kether. Each instalment sees some of the UK's finest DJs bringing a fresh selection of afrodiasporic bass music from South America, the UK, Lisbon, the Caribbean and beyond.

For lovers of: Dancehall • Garage • 140 • Afro House • Baile Funk • Dembow • Afrobeats • Kuduro • Global Bass

‘Kilengi’ means joy in Koutouba, one of the languages native to Congo. It’s a dance party guarantee that a night shaking ass with us will leave you feeling euphoric, revitalised and a lil bit sweaty. All we ask in exchange is that you respect your fellow party goers. We want this to be a safe space for everyone.

Now without further ado, meet the DJs:
