Colour Factory is a warehouse-style venue in Hackney Wick that hosts a mix of live gigs and dance nights, drawing a mixed reception depending on the event and crowd. It leans toward East London's alternative, creative nightlife scene rather than mainstream clubbing, with an emphasis on intimate live performances. Service quality appears to vary by night according to reviews, though the space itself gets praise for its atmosphere.

What people say

"I was there last weekend on miss bashful event. It was my first time in this venue and I heard mixed opinions beforehand. But I must say, I was nicely surprised. The only things that could be improved are queques - to the venue, to the cloakroom or the toilets. But other than that no downsides. The upper floor with a view of the stage was great and less hot than the main dancefloor. The extra room with seats was a bit more quiet so we could talk over there and just chill. Very good experience and I'll def be back!"
