There will be no rapidly strobing lights, but there may be dimly lit areas, projections and bright, slowly pulsing coloured light.
The capacity for this venue is 120, but we will only be selling 100 tickets to give people space to dance.
We aim to provide a safe and inclusive night out for people who may experience anxiety or sensory overwhelm in traditional club settings. Though the creative team behind Disco Nuerotico all have lived experience of neurodivergence and mental health issues, we are not medical professionals. We can support and advise, but we expect each individual to take responsibility for their health and well-being.
