Roseberry Road Studios is a unique and influential nightclub and creative arts space based in the United Kingdom, most commonly associated with the vibrant cultural scene of Middlesbrough in North East England. Originally established in the early 2010s, it was conceived as a multi-purpose venue blending nightlife with community-driven arts, rehearsal spaces, and recording facilities. Housed in a repurposed industrial building on Roseberry Road, the venue quickly earned a reputation as a hub for grassroots music, underground dance events, and avant-garde visual art installations.
Over the years, Roseberry Road Studios became synonymous with the resurgence of the local arts scene, helping to put Middlesbrough on the map for touring musicians and creative collectives. Its industrial-chic aesthetic, commitment to supporting independent artists, and welcoming attitude toward experimental performances fostered a loyal and diverse following. Not just a nightclub, the Studios also offered opportunities for young talents to hone their craft, contributing greatly to the region’s creative ecosystem.
Throughout its history, Roseberry Road Studios has adapted to changing times; renovations have expanded the space to include improved sound systems, enhanced art gallery sections, and flexible layouts to accommodate everything from intimate gigs to all-night club events. Its resilience in the face of economic pressures—especially during the challenges of the 2020 pandemic—underscored the venue’s importance as a cultural lifeline for locals and visiting artists alike. No major location changes have occurred, but its evolving structure has allowed it to remain relevant and beloved in the ever-shifting world of UK nightlife.
Notable artists who have performed at Roseberry Road Studios include international electronic acts like DJ Seinfeld and HAAi, boundary-pushing UK bands such as Working Men’s Club and The Orielles, and a host of local rising stars including Avalanche Party, Benefits, Komparrison, and singer-songwriter Dylan Cartlidge. The venue has also played host to experimental electronic producer Lone, Newcastle-based indie outfit Martha Hill, and special appearances from pioneering DJs of the Northern underground scene.
