New LGBTQ+ Night RUSH Takes Over London’s Scala Until 5am

London is getting a new LGBTQ+ club night this September as RUSH launches at Scala in King’s Cross with three rooms, eight DJs and dancing running through until 5am.

The new queer nightlife experience takes place on Friday 25 September 2026, transforming different areas of the well-known London venue into separate spaces covering techno, house, pop and disco. Doors open at 10.30pm, with the party continuing until 5am the following morning.

RUSH describes its debut as a space focused on music, connection and bringing LGBTQ+ people together, whether they arrive with friends or come to the event alone.

Three rooms and eight DJs

Rather than relying on one dancefloor and one style of music, RUSH is splitting Scala into three distinct areas.

The Main Room will focus on techno and house, with Ad Hoc, Liam Parsons, J. Aria and Hendrik Milan on the line-up. Upstairs in the Attic, Airdy and Dom Topics will provide the pop soundtrack, while the Foyer turns towards disco and house with Dani St James and Perdiem.

Resident Advisor also lists the night as featuring house, tech house, circuit, pop remixes and disco house, with organisers calling the September event the first chapter for the new London party.

A new queer night in King’s Cross

Its King’s Cross location also makes RUSH particularly accessible for people travelling into London for the night.

Scala sits on Pentonville Road, a short distance from King’s Cross St Pancras, giving visitors easy connections from across Britain as well as Eurostar services arriving into nearby St Pancras International.

The venue itself spreads across several floors, although anyone considering attending should be aware that Scala states there are numerous stairs and no lift. The event is strictly for those aged 18 and over, physical photo identification is required and last entry is at 2am.

Tickets are already on sale through Scala and Resident Advisor, with prices varying depending on ticket allocation and booking platform. The event is also now appearing across London LGBTQ+ nightlife listings as its launch approaches.

For visitors making a night or weekend of it, the combination of King’s Cross transport links and a 5am finish gives RUSH a strong city-break appeal alongside its place in London’s already extensive LGBTQ+ nightlife scene.
