In 1988 the Marquee Club was forced to move here at 105 Charing Cross Road, where the former Cambridge Circus Cinematograph Theatre once was.
The opening night was on the 16th of August and featured Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley‘s Kiss. During this period, here the Dream Theater recorded their first live album, Live at the Marquee, on the 23rd of April 1993.
90’s giants such as Dave Matthews Band, Oasis, The Verve, Screaming Trees, The Jesus Lizard, Pavement, Babes in Toyland, Meat Puppets, Type O Negative, PJ Harvey, The Replacements, Pantera, Primus, Megadeth, Spiritualized, and Soundgarden, to name a few, all played at the venue.
This site was subsequently bought for redevelopment and the club closed in 1996. It now hosts a JD Wetherspoon pub.
Address: 105 Charing Cross Rd, WC2H 0BP
