What people say

"E1 delivers an exceptional night out. The sound system and light show are genuinely impressive, easily among the best I’ve experienced at a venue in London. The bar staff are plentiful and efficient, so queues for drinks stay refreshingly short. I caught Cristobal Pesce performing, which was a real highlight. The security team also deserve a mention: professional and approachable, without the unnecessary strictness you sometimes find at other venues. One tip for anyone planning a visit: stop by Turners Old Star, a nearby pub, for a relaxed pre-drink before heading in."
