Neck of the Woods is grass-roots, independent and run by people who love music, community and nightlife. We’re on a mission to foster and nurture the local scene and unrepresented communities, while also welcoming international artists. Artists, promoters and organisations using this space are provided with wrap-around support, covering everything from in-house sound, marketing, security and hospitality.

In a time where online spaces are becoming increasingly overrun by AI, we believe it’s more important than ever to provide a physical space for humans to come together on the dance floor, united in our love of music.
