Black, white, gay, straight, religion or lack of it... Welcome to Newcastle's top & longest running underground Club. We hope you come to love World HQ, we built it right here, for you & all your chums - in the hope that you would... x

The 4th decade of WHQ

Now in our fourth decade as the city's top underground Club, we have loads of fab shows & exciting events coming in for the Winter / Spring season.

Not many Clubs on the planet have lasted this long, remaining totally independent & we are now stronger than we have ever been. With that in mind, now is as good a time as any to check out our site's 'History' section, where the full arc of our existence as a Club is laid out from day one...

We continue to push the boundaries of Club culture & our consistent, inclusive, welcoming vibe across the generations - Keep on keeping on.

The New WHQ Merch Drop has landed

An ode to our long history & place in underground music in the North East & UK & our continued efforts to unite all communities, all garments are printed on high quality & ethically sourced materials. 

The profits from this range of clothing will be put back into our community programmes, helping subsidise our community events such as -  Open Decks, Young Promoter Fund, Autism Activists, The Jump Off & Fresh - our Club night run by & for people with autism & learning difficulties.

This brand new collection features collaborations with @girl_face_design  & @iambobzilla.
