Following a four month closure that left the music world worrying for the potential loss of one of its most iconic clubs, London’s Fabric has announced it will reopen on 6th January, in what the club is calling “a cherished moment in our history”.

The news comes not long after last month’s successful renegotiation of its license, with the reopening weekend set to feature “a host of unannounced special guests from our history and our future”.

Alongside the rest of the secret lineup, Fabric have confirmed the return of residents Jacob Husley and Peter Pixzel, alongside Craig Richards and Terry Francis.

In a press release, Fabric’s owners said:

“It’s pretty much impossible for us to put a measure on just how much gratitude we are feeling right now to be able to announce our reopening proper,” the club said in a statement today. “We’ve said it before and we will keep on saying it—you are all to thank for this. The credit for this is shared among hundreds of thousands of petition signers, letter writers, donors, t-shirt bearers, artists, party promoters and more than we can ever recount. A community of people from the world over who came together and continued the principal of unity that was central to the foundation of our culture—to save us….. Now it’s about what’s ahead of us. We’re looking ahead to filling our disco with our family of artists and club heads alike, with our soundsystems including our new Pioneer Pro Audio Room Two set up pushing out mesmeric high level sound. This is what it has always been about.”
