1a Camden High Street, Camden Town, NW1 7JE
In 2023 especially, KOKO surprisingly found itself on many a ravers radar.
Once more known as a venue for gigs and other such non-clubby outings, it has now – quite recently - become regarded with the same honour as its nightclub bigger brothers.
Don’t be fooled by the theatre-like interior, there is very little formal about the nights that KOKO throws.
Their KOKOElectronic branch has been a major hit, attracting big players like Ben UFO, Goldie, Acid Arab, Groove Armada, Harrison BPD, and Hot Chip. And that’s just for KOKOElectronic, I’m not even listing their gigs, which are delightfully regular and plentiful.
While the airy innards may feel a far cry from the tight corridors of fabric, KOKO uses this to its advantage; tall lighting rigs and large and low lamps horizontally aligned to create a cave of stunning visuals.
The big hall leaves a lot of space for dancing, a spatial friendliness to large groups that clubs are often short of, even if it means you’ll likely all be facing the stage (ugh).
With the sound system, sumptuous interior, and the muscle to pull in big names, KOKO deserves a seat at the big boys table.
