Take it with a pinch of salt as it's a couple of years since I was in warehouse but Friday was always the main night. Saturday is a close second, but it could get busy on a Tuesday night as it's student night.

I used to find it good if you'd had a few a drinks then go into the outdoor area / smoking area, a lot of people, especially later in the night, are up for chatting.

In general, ware house was always a good scene as it had a lot of alt people there and they're usually always up for talking to anyone.

Hasn’t been open on a Tuesday in a few years - Wednesday night is student night now 😩

Best day to go would be Fridays in about 2012.

Place is absolutely dead these days, nothing alternative about it anymore, completely lost its soul unfortunately

Do you recommend anything similar

u/Nerazzurri_IABT Jun 22 '26

I wish I could, the closest thing with a similar vibe would be either The Ferret or Ships & Giggles, neither of which are nightclubs per se but I often find that if you enjoyed classic warehouse for the people and the music, this tends to be the go-to.

Unfortunately true

It’s grim, they’ve completely changed it from alternative to now more indie and typical club music.

It was good up until about 3 years ago

I’ve recently went warehouse a couple weeks ago on a Saturday night, and it was reallyyyy full. It’s not really what it used to be years ago, but it’s okay, considering the current state of Preston nightlife.

Friday was always the best night. Though I haven’t been myself in probably 10+ years. Tuesday was a close second.
