London’s Garage Takes Shape

DHP Family, which acquired the Garage earlier this year, unveiled its concept for the London venue that has hosted Radiohead and Red Hot Chili Peppers in the past.  

Scheduled for opening in 2017, the new Garage will feature two independent live music spaces – 600- and 150-cap – and an all-day café called the General Store.

DHP hired Zopsigog to take care of the venue’s design, the same company that also designed the Oslo in Hackney, London, which is also owned by DHP. The Garage, located in the London borough of Islington, was acquired by DHP in May 2016.

The transformation is supposed to be completed by February 2017.

 “The Garage has been on my radar for about 10 years now when I first looked to buy it,” said DHP Family managing director George Akins. “Its location, layout and history are perfect for what we are looking for in a venue and we look forward to reinventing the space for a new generation.”
