Final show for famous dance music venue Printworks
One of the UK's biggest and most well-known nightclubs is closing its doors, after holding a final show on Monday.
Events company Broadwick Live became caretakers and established the space as the go-to for all dance music genres., it is now it is set to become an office block, but there are hopes within the clubbing community that a space for them will be saved within its walls.DJ and radio presenter Melvo Baptiste is one of last people to play at Printworks and is part of the line-up for disco record label Glitterbox's final show at the venue.
"Club environments are where you really find your tribe and meet friends, you don't do that in bars or restaurants as there's not that one common thing that's connecting everyone apart from alcohol," he says.We find two partygoers in the crowd, Libby Minney and Andrew Bartha, both 25, who tell the BBC they became friends after meeting at Printworks."It's especially sad to think in the future that's not going to happen," she adds.
