Colour Factory, located at 8 Queen's Yard,
London E9 5EN, has established itself as one of East
London’s most innovative and community-driven nightclubs. Originally opened in 2021, the venue occupies a space that was previously home to Mick’s Garage, itself a popular party and event spot within the burgeoning Hackney Wick nightlife scene. As Colour Factory, the club has sought to be a platform for inclusivity and diversity, prioritizing marginalized voices within electronic music and serving as a safe, welcoming space for LGBTQIA+ communities and people of all backgrounds.
Its warehouse-style interior, featuring both indoor and outdoor areas, has made it adaptable for a wide range of events, from late-night raves and live music performances to art installations and day festivals. Over time, Colour Factory has continually evolved its programming, reflecting the rapid cultural shifts of
London’s nightlife throughout the early 2020s. The club’s commitment to safer space policies and its collaborations with community organizations set it apart as more than just a party venue—it's a cultural hub contributing to the ongoing narrative of queer nightlife and alternative club culture in the capital.
There have been no significant relocations, but the venue has expanded its remit and refurbished its spaces to accommodate growing demand and to enhance accessibility, sound, and lighting. Its reputation for consistently forward-thinking line-ups has solidified Colour Factory as a vital destination for both cutting-edge international acts and the flourishing local underground.
Notable artists who have performed at Colour Factory include international names like Honey Dijon, Midland, Juliana Huxtable, and Josey Rebelle, as well as prominent local DJs and collectives such as Shy One, FAUZIA, Jaguar, OK Williams, Pxssy Palace, and BBZ.
