Runs across two levels near Old Street with rotating genre-spanning club nights and DJ residencies rather than a fixed identity
The basement uses a Void sound system, noted by reviewers as distinctive and less fatiguing to listen to over a night out

📖

Full description

XOYO is a fixture of Shoreditch's nightlife scene, hosting a rotating lineup of genre-spanning club nights and DJ residencies across two levels near Old Street. It draws an energetic, trend-conscious East London crowd rather than a landmark tourist audience, with a reputation built more on its programming than any particular era of history.

Reviews note a lively atmosphere and strong sound, though door policy and security can be strict.

Reviews

The door management here severely needs a review. The staff member (not the bouncers) handling entry was highly unprofessional, and the selection process felt entirely biased and inappropriate rather than based on any actual venue policy. It gives both XOYO and Feel It a bad name
