Under The Arches: Leeds’ New Underground Club Is About To Shake The City

Leeds has a new late-night home and it’s hiding right under your feet. Under The Arches, the city’s newest underground rave spot, officially launches this September, tucked away beneath the railway arches in the heart of Leeds.

If you’ve been keeping your ear to the ground, you might already know the space. Promoter Josh Demello has been quietly testing the waters for the past couple of years with his party brand Ruckus24, bringing names like tINI, Dr Banana, Locklead, Tristan Da Cunha, Garrett David and Reeshy through the arches. Now, after a full refurb, the space is stepping up as a permanent club dedicated to underground music.

And it’s not holding back. Powered by a brand-new Funktion-One sound system and a slick production upgrade, Under The Arches is launching with a stacked season of events. Expect parties from crews like Slapfunk, Ruckus24, Airspace, and Percolate, with lineups featuring Kolter, Dungeon Meat, Georgia, Julian Fijma, Jamback, Mandidextrous, Samurai Breaks, and plenty more still to be announced.

With Leeds losing some of its legendary clubs in recent years, Under The Arches is arriving at just the right time to keep the city’s underground culture thriving. If you’re craving low ceilings, heavy bass, and a proper basement energy, you’ll want to get yourself down there
