Lío London: How to Get In — Tables, Entry, Dress Code & FAQ

Lío London brings the famous Ibiza cabaret brand to Coventry Street — a theatrical dinner show that turns into one of central London's most distinctive club nights. Here's how entry actually works, what it costs, and the bookable alternatives if you want a show-led night arranged for you.

What Lío Is (and When It Becomes a Club)

By evening, Lío is a cabaret restaurant: dinner, performers, production — the same formula that made the Ibiza original famous. Then, on Fridays and Saturdays from around 11:30pm, the restaurant becomes a nightclub running until roughly 4am. The address is 3-4 Coventry Street, W1D 6BL, moments from Piccadilly Circus.

That dual identity shapes how getting in works: many guests book the dinner show and stay for the club, which is the smoothest route to the best of both.

How to Get In

• Tables — booked with the venue for the club night. Floor tables have historically started around a £1,500 minimum spend, VIP tables from £2,000, rising with group size, position and the event. As everywhere, the minimum is a bar tab, not a fee.
• Entry / lists — where the venue runs entry for the club night, door fees have typically been £20–£40 depending on the event, with ladies' entry favoured in classic London fashion. Special events price higher.
• The dinner show — booking the earlier show and staying on is the route regulars use, and the one that guarantees you're inside before the night fills.

One honest note: we don't arrange Lío bookings ourselves — the venue handles its own reservations. What we can do is everything below.

The Dress Code

Lío runs a dress-to-impress standard to match the glamour of the room. For ladies: an elegant outfit with heels or heeled evening boots — a dress is the no-thought answer, with smart trousers, skirts or dark denim workable when the whole look is chic. For gents: dress shirt, smart trousers, smart shoes, blazer optional; dark denim passes only when the outfit stays elegant.

Refused at the door: beachwear, sportswear, shorts, flip-flops and sandals, flat shoes and wedged heels on the guestlist, fancy dress, hats, and hen-do accessories. Table clients get slightly more give — elegant trainers for gents, classy flats for ladies. The citywide rules live in our London club dress code guide.
