Disco Neurotico

Sat 7 Sep 2024, 9pm

Reimagining clubbing for the nervous and neurospicy, Disco Neurotico is an innovative and inclusive new club night.

With a focus on inclusivity, individuality and sensory-friendly experiences, Disco Neurotico aims to redefine nightlife for the neurodivergent community and to provide a safer, less frenetic and more inclusive clubbing experience for people who may experience anxiety or sensory overwhelm in traditional club settings.

Disco Neurotico was founded by Byron Vincent, a raver with diagnoses of ADHD, autism and PTSD, who struggled with the overcrowded, unpredictable, claustrophobic and overwhelming environment of club nights.

As he says: ‘Stressful navigation, few escape routes and fraught interactions contribute to panic, sensory overwhelm and burnout, marring nights out and leaving us exhausted and isolated.’

‘However, the FOMO is real, so we either attend and endure or avoid and miss out. With Disco Neurotico, we aim to provide all the joys of clubbing, with none of the drawbacks.’

Bop along to a silent disco, relax in our gaming areas and soak up the atmosphere of clubbing, in a safe, relaxed space.

Supported by Arts Council England and the Southbank Centre
