As the Conductor of all aspects of The 86 has been hospitalised the past 2 weeks and remains so, the venue is simply not in a position to be able to trade and deliver our shows and service as would be expected.
We therefore will be closed for the next couple of weeks to allow for their recovery and so we can get back on top of the behind the scenes stuff and back to putting on great shows and fun late night times.
We apologise for any bookings that have had to be cancelled which have now been refunded in full, or any inconvenience our brief closure may cause. We will be shimmering again with you very soon.
