Akedo is a gaming bar on Corporation Street in the centre of Lincoln that doubles as a live music room. Alongside racks of retro and modern consoles (Nintendo 64s and a Sega Megadrive next to PlayStation 4s, an Xbox One and a Switch), craft beers and a Korean and Japanese-inspired look, it puts on gigs, DJ nights, electronic club nights and open mic events with a strong lean towards local talent. Notable past bookings include an Extnddntwrk (Andrew Fearn of Sleaford Mods) album show in August 2025. A small, community-minded room for bands, producers and DJs starting out in Lincoln.
