Live music venue Arts Club reopens this month with two shows from local favourites The Wombats. Arts Club on Seel Street will welcome the band on Friday, September 15, and Saturday, September 16. The venue will reopen with three live stages: the theatre space at 550 capacity, the treehouse at 450 capacity and a new embryo stage at 100 capacity. There will be full in-house production, full-screen LED Video, 4am club nights and a daytime events programme.
The new version of Arts Club will be operated by Tokyo Industries, the Manchester-based team behind Gorilla, The Deaf Institute and Factory251. Aaron Mellor, founder and managing director of Tokyo Industries said: “Venues like the Arts Club are fundamental to a city’s cultural tapestry, without these grassroots music venues we don’t have the next emerging talent. It’s vital we keep these venues alive.
Liverpool has a deep history in music and Liverpool needs to support and push its creative industries. Venue-wise, we are preserving a lot of the building’s original character, whilst adding improved light and sound, better flow and circulation. We will have a mix of big-name bookings and regular club nights. We are looking forward to a launch weekend with local hero’s The Wombats – the band can’t wait to perform in front of their home crowd!” Local live promoter Revo from EVOL Promotions will be holding the diary and is keen to hear from any interested bands, DJs or club promoters.’
