- More than 30 per cent of UK clubs have closed since the pandemic, who knew a saviour of the club scene could lie in a former soft furnishings site.
The IKEA in Tottenham (North London) has gone from DIY haven to dancefloor, and with a 15,000 person capacity DRUMSHEDS is now one of the UKs biggest cultural spaces.
Our Culture Correspondent Minnie Stephenson walked down its former aisles.

Really great reporting - I'm really pleased to have some positivity in the news. The news so often focuses on the ugly side of UK nightlife and it means so much just to acknowledge the importance of nightlife
Used to be a real rave called the sanctuary that went the other way and changed to IKEA in Milton Keynes. Htid. By the way, this isn't a rave
😂charty smarty.😂
Considering The Sanctuary is now an IKEA then it’s only fair to reclaim one back. I mean, for a second I got excited in thinking it had been reborn. Oh well, one can hope!
These reporters have obviously never been to a rave…that is not one
Exactly.
"Ravers". So much for accuracy.
I got a giggle out of that too.

Surprisingly a positive report by the mainstream media, thank you
The dance floor is easily assembled with plastic pegs and glue and the instructions easy to understand
I absolutely love DRUMSHEDS !
We need more roller rinks!!!
They missed the catch should have been called flatpack not drumsheds
So, thanks 🇸🇪
Great idea
cost of living but its £6 a 330ml beer
Nice to see something other than people being slaughtered.
Can't even escape the new norm from a story about a club.
You know what i mean
put the damn phones down !!!
"... pill to swallow ..." LOL! I see what you did there ;o)
As long as its safe and has enough escape routes and complies with fire health and safety.
Hope its dancing for the whole community.
I am only going if you can buy a packet of tealights at the exit.
Good morning
Who remembers helter skelter?
Actual raves.
Shocking lack of diversity
Except in the interviews, obviously
Young people?
crowd looks awful
Dreadful
Takes 2 hours to get back to London when the night finishes. What a joke
Of course trhere had to be some drag guy in this. Do Journalists even have any clue about the normal working class persons views on this whole thing anymore?
