The Southgate Club — Quick Facts
Not-for-profit members' club in Southgate, running since 1820, with open mic nights twice a month, blues jams, tribute shows and function rooms for hire.
The Southgate Club has been going since 1820, when it started life as the Southgate Reading Society - in its own words, *"bringing entertainment and enjoyment to you and the community for 206 years"*. It runs as a not-for-profit (company no. 00437675).
The music programme is unusually busy for a members' club: Open Mic Night on the second and fourth Monday of each month, *"Rockin' at the Southgate Club"* on the third Wednesday, monthly country nights from September 2026, plus blues jams, musicians' showcases, tribute shows, discos and a comedy club.
Members pay less on the door than the public (GBP 15 against GBP 18 on a typical ticket). The club has a games room, members' bar, front lounge and art gallery, and hires its function rooms out for private events.
