Lío London Has Closed: Show-Led Nights Instead

Lío London has closed. The cabaret restaurant and club on Coventry Street, near Piccadilly Circus, is no longer trading, so there is no Lío dinner show, club night, table or guestlist to book. If you searched for how to get into Lío, this page explains what it was and where to find a similar show-led night.

Be wary of anyone still offering Lío tables or entry: there is no Lío night to book.

What Lío was (history)

When it was open, Lío brought the Ibiza cabaret brand to 3-4 Coventry Street: a theatrical dinner show through the evening that turned into a nightclub late on Friday and Saturday nights. It ran a dress-to-impress door and took its own reservations; we never booked it. That describes the venue while it traded and is kept here for reference only.

Show-led nights we book instead

If it was the theatrical, performance-heavy night you were after, these rooms are open and we book them every week:

Club	Where	Nearest tube	The show	Tables from
The Box	Walker's Court, Soho	Piccadilly Circus	Provocative cabaret, running late	£1,000
Cirque Le Soir	Ganton Street, Carnaby	Oxford Circus	Circus performers working the room all night	£800
London Reign	Piccadilly	Piccadilly Circus	Champagne shows, hip-hop, RnB and commercial	£800

The Box is the closest in spirit: cabaret first, a few minutes' walk from Coventry Street. Cirque Le Soir suits a group that wants performers through the whole night, and London Reign is the big champagne-show room on Piccadilly. Our The Box dress code and how to get into Cirque Le Soir guides cover the door at each.

Dinner first, then a club

Lío's appeal was dinner and a show that rolled into a club. The nearest way to recreate that now is a party restaurant for dinner, then a table at one of the clubs above. Our guide to party restaurants in London compares the options, which take their own reservations.

How booking works at these clubs

Tables: a minimum spend is a bar tab, not a fee, and it rises with group size and on event nights. Our guide to VIP table prices in Mayfair explains how it works.
Guestlist: free to join through us; at Cirque Le Soir and London Reign it is reserved for women. The Box runs no guestlist: entry is by table booking.
Dress code: smart and elegant at all three; see the London club dress code guide.

Tell us the night and your group size through London nightclub bookings or get in touch, and we will send the tables available at the clubs above.
