Number 90 Hideout: The Rebirth of Hackney Wick’s Iconic Clubbing Space

Hackney Wick has long been a hub for creativity, culture, and, of course, great nightlife. Among its iconic venues, Number 90 has always been a standout. With its canalside location and diverse mix of events (including Half Baked), it’s been a beloved part of the London clubbing scene. But now, Number 90 is ready for its next big chapter.

Last year, the venue transformed into three distinct spaces: Number 90 Bar, Number 90 Live, and Number 90 Hideout—each one offering something special. From intimate gigs to immersive art shows, the shift created a fresh and exciting experience for visitors. But it’s Number 90 Hideout that’s really stealing the spotlight now, with a complete overhaul that’s going to change the way you hear music in Hackney Wick.

Hideout’s Total Transformation: A Clubbing Experience Like No Other

If you’re familiar with Number 90 Hideout, you’ll hardly recognize it now. What was once a laid-back, low-key space has been completely reimagined to create an audiophile’s dream.

The venue has been gutted and rebuilt from the ground up, with every detail carefully considered to maximize sound quality. Think warm wooden paneling, top-notch acoustic treatments, and a brand-new DJ booth at the heart of the room. This isn’t just a venue; it’s a sound system enthusiast’s dream. The space features bespoke lighting, 360° projection mapping, and the venue’s signature D&B sound system, ensuring an immersive, unforgettable experience from every angle. And don’t forget the new wooden floor underfoot, adding to the overall vibe.

The attention to detail is what makes this space truly special—whether you’re a DJ, performer, or just here to vibe to the music, Hideout is now a place where sound isn’t just heard, it’s felt.

The Grand Opening: An Evening of Music and Celebration

To mark this incredible transformation, Number 90 Hideout is hosting a grand opening on Thursday, April 3rd. It’s going to be an evening full of expertly curated music, craft cocktails, and good vibes. Expect sets from some of the best names in the game, including Giles Smith, Jive Talk, and a special guest headliner from Ninja Tune. The night is designed to celebrate the venue’s new chapter, and it’s set to be a total blast.

Bruno Cabral, co-founder of Number 90, shared his excitement about the new space:

“We didn’t just renovate a venue, we built an experience. Every panel, every angle, every speaker was positioned for optimal sound. Whether you’re a DJ, a performer, or just here for the atmosphere, Hideout will change the way you hear music and experience events.”

Giles Smith: Bringing His Legendary Nights to Hideout

For Giles Smith, one of London’s most respected figures in soul, house, and electronic music, Number 90 Hideout represents something really special. With 25 years of experience, Giles is bringing his Giles Smith & Friends nights to the venue, and he couldn’t be more excited about it.

He says:

“25 years active in the scene now, it’s still small to medium-sized underground clubs that inspire and excite me the most as both an artist and as a dancer. I am extremely proud to have been approached to be involved in Number 90 Hideout, as a resident DJ. Within seconds of seeing the venue, I said ‘yes’. The space is quite simply stunning and will no doubt become one of the best clubs of its type in the capital and surely beyond.”

11 Years of Number 90: A Celebration of Music and Community

But the excitement doesn’t end there. Number 90 is also celebrating its 11th anniversary on April 5th. Over the past decade, the venue has been a space for music, culture, and a strong sense of community. To celebrate this milestone, the anniversary party will feature an incredible lineup, including Cinthie, Jive Talk, Just Jam, Jhobei, and house music legends Housey Doingz. This is going to be a night full of great music and memories—exactly what you’d expect from Number 90.
