SESH

Located at 129 Alaska Street, London, SE1 8XE, Alaska Waterloo has earned a prominent reputation as one of the city's most dynamic and eclectic nightclubs. The venue is housed within the historic Alaska Buildings, originally constructed in the early 20th century as a fur factory, which lends the club its unique industrial charm. Over the decades, this distinctive setting has played host to an array of cultural events, reflecting the ever-evolving moods of London’s nightlife.

Emerging as a dedicated nightclub in the late 1990s, Alaska Waterloo quickly attracted a loyal following, particularly among the LGBTQ+ community and revelers embracing underground electronic music scenes. Its location, just a stone’s throw from Waterloo Station, made it both accessible and symbolic, serving as a meeting point for creative expression and diverse communities. The club's reputation grew in the 2000s, celebrated for its inclusive ethos, immersive themed parties, and commitment to showcasing both established and emerging talent.

While Alaska Waterloo has always remained in its original location, the venue underwent significant refurbishment in the mid-2010s to modernize its sound system, lighting, and interior decor—maintaining the building's historic character while delivering a cutting-edge nightlife experience. Alaska Waterloo is recognized for its cultural significance as a catalyst for creative exchange and as a platform for LGBTQ+ rights and visibility in London. Notable performers who have graced its stage and DJ booth include international artists such as Honey Dijon, The Blessed Madonna, Derrick Carter, and Maya Jane Coles, as well as local legends like Horse Meat Disco, Hannah Holland, DJ Fat Tony, and Dan Beaumont.
