Save The Moth Club - Petition to Prevent Venue Closure
Sign a petition to save London's iconic Moth Club venue from closure and development. Over 25,000 supporters and major artists backing the cause.
The Moth Club, a historic ex-servicemen's club in London, faces imminent closure due to development plans. This grassroots campaign calls on supporters to sign a petition to prevent the venue's demolition and preserve its cultural legacy. The Moth Club has been a crucial launching pad for emerging talent and an intimate performance space for established artists for many years. It has hosted King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, IDLES, Jarvis Cocker, Lady Gaga, Dry Cleaning, Shame, Caroline Polachek, Mac DeMarco, Yard Act, and numerous other notable musicians. The venue is known for its unique character: sticky carpets, welcoming bar staff, cramped stage, and authentic atmosphere that cannot be replicated in modern developments. Over 25,000 people have already signed petitions, with support from major artists including Lewis Capaldi, Hot Chip, and Tame Impala. The campaign emphasizes that London is losing crucial spaces where emerging and established artists can perform in intimate settings. The closure represents a broader trend of cultural venues being replaced by luxury apartments and corporate chains. The venue's supporters argue that the Moth Club represents a different kind of nightlife experience—one based on authentic community, emerging talent discovery, and joyful cultural moments rather than commercialized entertainment. This campaign is about preserving London's live music infrastructure and protecting spaces where artists can develop before mainstream success.
