After lying empty for ten years, the Peckham Palais building (which first opened as a department store in 1867) has been turned back into a nightclub by The Night Group (the team behind Hackney’s Night Tales and Netil360). Palais is a 500-capacity club complete with a Funktion-One five-way sound system in the basement, where a mix of local and international DJs take over the decks, and cocktail bar and events space The Ballroom upstairs. Speaking about the venue, co-founder Jamie Rule said: “We’ve been developing the sound system for over a year. We wanted to create something that moves through you. With infra bass, you can feel it, not just hear it. Now we want to see what people do with the space.”
