Why wait until midnight to lose yourself in the music?

Trade the traditional late-night exhaustion for pure daytime euphoria. We are transforming the historic, atmospheric Crypt Gallery at St Martin-in-the-Fields into a subterranean daytime dance party featuring disco hits from the 70s onwards.

This is a fun afternoon escape beneath the heart of London. Dance under the brick arches, soak up the incredible acoustics, and still have your whole evening ahead of you to keep the party going (or get a full night’s sleep or do your big shop on the way home – we won’t judge).

Experience one of London’s most iconic hidden venues like never before and get that irreplaceable disco euphoria, then walk out into the evening light ready for dinner, more drinks, or a fresh start tomorrow.

Tickets are strictly limited for this exclusive experience for over 18s only.

Bringing a group? There are bar and ticket discounts for groups of 6 or more.

Unfortunately, the 17 October event is cancelled. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

Two Bands – One Great Night

BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND. Following the huge success of last year’s sold out show, Ruby Rose is returning to London!

An extraordinary, fun combination of bands featuring exceptional musicians.

A unique jazz and country music blend with Ivory Pablo and The Blue Notes providing a gloriously upbeat opening jazz set with a very special guest singer from New Orleans, the legendary Ruby Rose.  

The second half will feature Savannah Gardner headlining the night with her own “Recovering Good Girl” Country Band. 

There will be a party atmosphere throughout as Pablo is celebrating his Birthday and Savannah is celebrating a year that has seen her become one of the most sought after acts on the UK Country Scene.

Doors open from 7pm allowing you plenty of time to settle in, and enjoy some delicious food and drinks before the show starts at 8pm.

An evening with TJ Johnson and his band in concert.

TJ will take you on a dusty trail from the smokey Jazz dives of New Orleans through the foot tapping Honky Tonks of Texas to the gin-soaked Speakeasies of New York. TJ takes influences from musical legends such as Dr John, Ray Charles, Jimmy Witherspoon, Billie Holiday, Frank Sinatra and Willie Nelson. 

TJ Johnson is widely considered to be one of the UK’s most charismatic highly revered Jazz and Blues singers. He is also a hot piano player and respected bandleader. TJ sprang onto the Jazz scene in the late 80’s as a jazz singer with Max Collie at the age of 17 and since forming his own band in 1990 has performed extensively for over thirty years now at many theatres, festivals and jazz clubs both in the UK and overseas.

Always a true ambassador of the soul, TJ sings songs of love lost and gained, of life wholesome and corrupt, songs of hope and despair, songs of the night, all with the true passion and boozy swagger of only a man who has been there and knows.

Doors open from 7pm allowing you plenty of time to settle in, and enjoy some delicious food and drinks before the show starts at 8pm.

Like musicals? Love this spooky show!

This Halloween, we are bringing a delightfully dark twist to the stage as we proudly present four of the West End’s leading singing stars in a stunning cabaret evening featuring the best-loved songs from hit West End shows. Each of our performers is a highly talented lead or understudy singer from current or recent hit shows, coming together for one special night in a glittering – and spellbinding – evening of songs and entertainment.

Creep down into the intimate, atmospheric setting of our spectacular underground Crypt bar, the ultimate haunt for a night of musical theatre. You can buy and enjoy devilishly good tapas food alongside a wicked selection of wine, cocktails, and beers while you soak in the performance. It’s a night to die for, giving you all of the West End in one fantastically fiendish location! Book your spot in the Crypt tonight… if you dare.

Duke Street Big Band is one of London’s premier big bands. Founded in 2011, the seventeen-piece outfit draws musicians from across the city, playing jazz, funk, swing, latin, soul and blues. They’re regulars at The Crypt, and a reliably thrilling live act.

For this show, Duke Street turn the spotlight on Toshiko Akiyoshi – Japanese composer, pianist, bandleader, and one of the most distinctive voices in jazz history. Her music fuses Japanese folk heritage with American big band jazz, shaped by her wartime years in occupied Manchuria. The result is quietly radical and expressive: something that doesn’t quite sound like anyone else. She reshaped what big band music could be, at a time when the industry barely knew what to do with her.

The set features selections from Akiyoshi’s catalogue alongside classic and modern big band repertoire – a big sound, tight playing, and music that moves you.

Doors open from 7pm allowing you plenty of time to settle in, and enjoy some delicious food and drinks before the show starts at 8pm.

Steve Young and his six-piece band bring a slice of Nashville to the Crypt beneath Trafalgar Square – a foot-stomping ride through the best of American country, from Johnny & June and Kenny Rogers to Alison Krauss, Zac Brown Band, and Lady A.

Cold drinks, good food, and a room full of people who know every word. This is as close to a honky-tonk as central London gets.

Doors open from 7pm allowing you plenty of time to settle in, and enjoy some delicious food and drinks before the show starts at 8pm.
