Chinastraat Warehouse Rave

Six hours of hard, warm, machine-driven house under the steel roof. Concrete sub, no phones on the floor, sweat on the beams.

bio

Our flagship winter night returns to the main hall. Two rooms, one long bar, a sound system tuned for a room that was built to echo. Come early for the opening set; stay for the last record.

Sólstafir — Live in the Hall

Icelandic post-metal in a room with a twelve-metre ceiling. Support from a local string trio. Loud, slow, enormous.

bio

Sólstafir bring their cinematic, wind-bitten set to Chinastraat for one night. The hall's natural reverb does half the work — the rest is feedback and patience.

bar bricolage / the venue

Raw space. Real energy.

Bar Bricolage lives in a former workshop on the Chinastraat: bare brick, steel beams, a bar made from salvaged timber. We didn't sand it down — we tuned it. The room does something to sound that a clean box never can.

By day it's a bar and a kitchen. By night it's a club, a stage, a cinema, a dining hall. The furniture is built by hand, often from whatever the neighbourhood threw out. Nothing here is precious; everything is used.

the garden / seasonal

Green days. Golden evenings.

Behind the hall, the garden grows wild and stays that way on purpose. DIY structures, mismatched benches, a stone pizza oven and a stage made of pallets. In summer it's an open-air bar; in shoulder season it's the quietest good idea in Gent.
