East London venue XOYO are set to launch a brand new bar space which will be a cafe/gallery by day and a space to drink by night next week.

XO will be situated on the upper level of the venue and plans to be a ‘contemporary cultural hub’ that will host exhibitions from some of the most exciting artists and host nights by some of the world’s biggest DJs. By night XO will transform into a bar which will serve up premium beers and bespoke cocktails as well as playing host for some rather exciting sounding music, comedy, film and art events.

The space will be open five days a week and plans to host a whole range of creative pursuits so whatever you’re interests and whatever your idea of a ‘good night out’ is there’s probably going to be something you’ll enjoy.  New nights already include nights put on by i-D Magazine, Cooperative Music, Moshi Moshi and Transgressive and Andrew Weatherall will also be recording his weekly radio show live on site every Thursday.

XO will have a new drinks menu that will feature a selection of craft bottled & draught beers sourced from London Breweries such as Meantime and The Redchurch Brewer as well as bespoke premium cocktails and a selective wine list.
