Pacha launches new London venue, Lío

The Pacha Group has launched a new venue in London, Lío, set to be a restaurant/cabaret by day and club space by night.

The company behind Ibiza nightclub Pacha, has taken over the space formerly occupied by Cafe De Paris beside London's Leicester Square — with Lío expected to welcome an array of "DJs from around the world."

The venue will host Lío’s signature in-house party on Thursdays and Fridays, with Dmitri From Paris expected to kick things off tomorrow evening (Friday, May 19).

While on Saturdays, Lío will team up with the The London Palladium-based nightclub Toy Room for a "Toy Room takeover," welcoming in the West End favourite's "Teddy Bear" for the festivities.

The venue is being co-directed by Pacha Ambassador and Ibiza legend Francisco Ferrer, who devised the launches of Lío Mykonos and Lío Palma.
