Maison Close Guestlist: How to Get on the List

Maison Close is one of Mayfair's most sought-after nightclubs, and getting through the door on a busy night can be a challenge if you turn up unannounced. The guestlist is the simplest way to secure your entry, skip the uncertainty at the door, and often save on entry fees too. Here is exactly how the Maison Close guestlist works and what you need to do to get on it.

What Is the Maison Close Guestlist?

The guestlist at Maison Close is a pre-approved entry list managed by the club's promoters and booking team. When your name is on the list, the door team expects you, which means faster entry and, on most nights, reduced or complimentary admission. It is not the same as having a table reservation - the guestlist gives you general access to the venue rather than a dedicated area.

If you want to understand how guestlists work across London clubs more broadly, our guide to joining a nightclub guestlist covers the basics.

How to Get on the Maison Close Guestlist

There are a few ways to secure your spot:

Through a Promoter or Booking Service

The most reliable route is to go through a club promoter or a nightlife booking service. You can contact us on WhatsApp to get added to the Maison Close guestlist for any upcoming night. A promoter will confirm your name, the number of guests in your group, and which night you are attending.

Directly Through the Club

Maison Close accepts guestlist requests through their own channels, but availability varies by night. Going through a promoter is generally faster and gives you a direct point of contact if anything changes.

Walk-Ins Without the Guestlist

You can attempt a walk-in, but Maison Close operates a selective door policy, particularly on Fridays and Saturdays. Without a guestlist spot or reservation, there is no guarantee of entry. If you are planning a night here, getting on the list beforehand is always the smarter move.

What Does the Guestlist Include?

Being on the Maison Close guestlist typically gives you:

• Priority entry over walk-ins at the door
• Reduced or free entry on most standard nights (weekdays almost always, weekends vary)
• A confirmed arrival window, usually before midnight or 12:30am depending on the night

It does not include a table, dedicated seating, or complimentary drinks. For a full breakdown of what London club guestlists cover, see our guestlist explainer.

Best Nights to Use the Guestlist

Maison Close runs events throughout the week, but guestlist value changes depending on the night:

Weeknights (Tuesday to Thursday)

Guestlist entry is almost always free on these nights, and the door is more relaxed. These are excellent evenings for smaller groups who want to experience the club without the weekend crowds.

Friday and Saturday

The guestlist still offers an advantage on weekends, but expect the door team to be stricter about timing and dress code. Arriving before midnight is strongly recommended - turn up at 1am on a Saturday and your guestlist spot may no longer be honoured if the club has reached capacity.

What About Sundays?

Maison Close occasionally hosts Sunday sessions, especially around bank holidays. Guestlist availability for these is limited, so confirm through a promoter ahead of time.

Dress Code Reminders for Guestlist Guests

Being on the guestlist does not exempt you from the dress code. Maison Close maintains a smart, upscale standard every night. Trainers, sportswear, and overly casual clothing will get you turned away regardless of whether your name is on the list.

Group Size and Gender Ratio

Maison Close, like most Mayfair clubs, pays attention to group composition at the door. Mixed groups and groups of women tend to have the smoothest entry. All-male groups of more than four or five should consider pairing the guestlist with a table reservation to avoid being held at the door.

If you are wondering whether being on the guestlist guarantees entry, the honest answer is that it significantly improves your chances but does not make it certain. Dress code compliance, arrival time, and group makeup all play a role.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Maison Close guestlist free?

On weeknights, guestlist entry is typically free. On Fridays and Saturdays, it may offer reduced entry rather than free admission, depending on the event and time of arrival.

How far in advance should I sign up?

Same-day requests are fine for weeknights. For weekends, aim to confirm your spot by the afternoon to avoid being told the list is full.

Can I add people to the guestlist after signing up?

Yes, in most cases you can add extra names by contacting your promoter before the night. Last-minute additions on the door are harder to arrange.

Does the guestlist work for special events?

Themed nights, holiday events, and special parties at Maison Close may have separate ticketing or guestlist rules. Always confirm with a promoter if there is a special event running on your chosen night.

What time should I arrive?

Before midnight on weekdays, and ideally by 11pm on weekends. Arriving late risks your guestlist spot being released, especially on Fridays and Saturdays.
