Central London is getting a new 2000-capacity venue called Outernet Live

Outernet Live will be located on the corner of Oxford Street and Charing Cross Road, under The Now Building, which, according to a press release, features 23,000sq foot of floor to ceiling 16K screens. It'll also be part of Outernet London, which is described as "a billion pound immersive media, music and culture district."

The new venue is set to open later this year, and has a maximum capacity of 2000. Outernet Live will be the largest live events venue to be built in the central London area since the 1940s.

Philip O’Ferrall, CEO and President Outernet Global said, "This area of London has an amazing tradition of brilliant venues but many of them have sadly gone. To open Outernet Live as part of our wider culture and music district makes us all immensely proud. It is absolutely vital that artists and fans have a place to go in the centre of our city to perform and enjoy live music and we will welcome many other types of events to our venue as well. When you factor in the incredible things we can do with the Outernet screens we move to another level and our offering is something that really can’t be found anywhere else in the world. We love the history of Denmark Street and embrace what the future holds."
