My favourite venue in London at the moment for electronic music. The space itself is huge and you are never left feeling squashed in, hit and/or uncomfortable. The sound has got better year on year since their opening and the lighting is very good.

Great venue for most events. Was at the OnePlus phone release a year or so ago and it was perfect in style but awkward in location.

Amazing music venue with well placed bars and an incredible sound system with speakers every 5 metres so the volume was never too loud or distorted. Definetly going back for another event soon.

One of my favourite clubs to go too!
I've been here more times that I can count. Always a great line up if your into techno. The venue itself is mikes from where I live but always worth the travel in from north london.
The design is great. An old newspaper printing factory with pretty much nothing touched just all stripped down and made into a place where everyone can connect through the music.
5/5 printworks you will always be one of my favourite places to rave

Incredible venue, but not really worth it for a gig. Go to a club night instead.
Went there to see Floating Points with a friend. The main room is truly breathtaking. The visual effects were quality, as was the soundsystem and the overall atmosphere. I really enjoyed the actual performance, but I wouldn't return for a gig night there, and here's why-
- Printworks is a HUGE venue, therefore it has to deal with a lot of people. With a gig, many people come and go at once. This makes entering and exiting a bit of a hassle.
- You have to walk for a very long way before getting into the main room. Seems like the place is more fit to a club night as there are many smaller spaces you walk past before the big room
- The tickets were overpriced, probably because of the size of the venue. Wasnt worth the amount of music we saw (fair enough we didn't see the warm up act, but still, 27 pounds for 1Hr20 of the main act was kind of unfair)
- There seems to be a strict curfew at 11. Floating Points awkwardly walked off stage at around 10:50 even though the crowd demanded an encore. I was pretty disappointed by this, and everyone seemed very confused.
I would like to check this out on a club night though, despite not returning for future gigs.

Went there for a big one and a big one it was!
Didn't find it difficult to find a spot to dance in as they had speakers lining the entire dancefloor. Never felt too hot or too cold. There was an amazing lightshow unlike any other club i've been to.
Only downside is the toilets. I mean c'mon guys a club that capacity with only one toilet?
In any case, it was wicked and I will definitely be heading there again. Best part is, when you get out it's only 11pm!

An exciting new venue in London. Unique set up like a day festival - best treated as such and get down early to experience to its fullest.

All of my yes! Fantastic sound, venue and light show! Is a bit chilly but only if you're not dancing away. Small cans of beer are expensive but this is only at the bar nearest the main room. Go to the other bars and you can get a pint for 50p more. Will be returning ASAP! ❤️❤️????????

Great venue, great sound just a shame you need to remember hiking boots to go to the toilet and the drinks are over priced (but name me a music venue in London that doesn't have over priced drinks).

It's freezing cold. Take warm clothes. The crowd are nice. The security is ridiculous. It gets really crowded on the dance floor so if you like to have no room to dance, this is your place.

Generally with big event spaces the staff can be moody and unhelpful (yes I could name and shame). However I haven’t been this impressed with a venue in years. The security and sound guys were so friendly and accommodating and the whole place was run flawlessly. One of the most awe inspiring venues I’ve been in for years and just so well run. Truly next level

I was pulled out of the queue, shouted at, humiliated, pushed onto the ground and treated like a criminal because my girlfriend forgot she was carrying her medication in her bag. This happened despite explaining this clearly to the security and being polite and patient waiting to be searched in a room for almost 1 hour. The bouncers and especially security manager are on some ego trip and seem to enjoy dominating, abusing and humiliating party goers whilst physically pushing them around. Eventually I was not allowed in because the boss man didn't like how I responded to being treated like a dog. Will never come back and definitely wouldn't recommend to anyone unless you are OK with physical harassment and humiliation just to enter a party. Some of those bouncers should be locked up.

I love warehouse style venues but this is on another level. I've wanted to go there for a while and I was truly blown away. It became my absolute favourite venue.

A pretty decent venue. Being in an old warehouse / factory it is different to a lot of more formal places.
Easy to get to as can walk from the tube station in 10 mins and not very long queues to get in, even for a sold out gig. Security is reasonably tight with bag checks and the like so only take what you really need.
The cloakroom is actually a set of lockers where you give a £10 deposit that is refunded at the end of the evening, hence you can you visit as often as you like. A bit of a queue to get your locker initially though.
Drinks are reasonably priced and the place is kept clean. The gents toilets could do with a bit of remedial work though.

I went to AfroPunk at Printworks, and I was really impressed with the versatility of the venue. There were two stages, but at least five other common areas where people could relax, buy food/drinks, take the perfect IG photo, and buy goods from local vendors. It an industrial, edgey look. It never felt too crowded. It felt full, but the onsite staff did a great job of managing the flow of people between spaces. Definitely a great venue!

Venue itself in terms of ability to deliver a musical experience is extremely good and a welcome two fingers up to turning London into a sanitised culturally devoid city for those who want to sit on a table drinking grey gooae with a cluster of wanna be Instagram influencers. Best lighting rig in Europe, reasonably priced bar for London, good sound system and atmospheric expansive venue. It's begun to be let down by excessive queues for security (although they've alway been very friendly), sold out lockers and again a ridiculous queue to get out. But all in all an important venue culturally for London and a decent night out

Great, interesting venue having previously hosted the presses for the Evening Standard. Went to a concert here and it was plenty big enough but not too big, nice high ceilings and great atmosphere. Food trucks outside and a long route inside to an area where the floors have been cut out to leave a floor to ceiling gallery with a stage at one end.

My fav club venue in London. As close to the Berlin vibe as I've experienced in London. Best yet: it's easy to find a spot with good sound no matter how crowded the gig. Plus there's tasty drinks and food available for the times between the dancing.

Very large place, good area for drinks with 2 bars (May be more) main stage is a huge rectangular room with a large roof. Many people can fit in here and on the balcony parts overlooking on the floors above. Very good speakers and good artists. Balls it for best stealth

Sick venue, it’s huuuuuge. Amazing lightshow - props to the people that programmed that, really adds another layer to the music and experience. Security and staff were very friendly as well. Thorough check on entrance. Sound in the beginning of the night was a bit fuzzy at the front but seamed to have been fixed later on.

Really enjoyed the gig we saw - they get great line ups here and combined with the lights etc... It makes for a load of fun. The bar served up drinks fast, all of which are relatively reasonably priced. System for getting in was also pretty organised, but they were having issues with all tickets from ticket master last time we went, so those with ticket master tickets had to get their tickets checked manually on a computer. That said - aim to get there half an hour in advance, loads of others will!

Amazing venue and light show + good sound system. The only let down was the limited amount of toilets for the large number of attendees, prepare to queue up for a good while to use the toilets.
Mixed crowd, some were pretty rough but this was obviously not the organisers faults!

Absolutely class venue. Been twice, once for a private party and then Hospitality. Banging sound system, loads of space, never a queue at the bar and fair prices for drinks by London standards. So well organised makes raving all the easier and more fun ????
