About
Neck of the Woods announced it was closing in June 2026 after eleven years, and then its community raised around a hundred and sixty thousand dollars to keep it open. That tells you most of what you need to know about the place. It runs as a bar, live music room and gallery space on K Road, with a stated Safe and Sound policy that it takes seriously, and a crowd that is there for the music rather than to be seen. Programming is club-led with live shows through the week. It does not publish regular opening hours, so check the gig listings for which nights the doors are open. Tickets for most events. Twenty-seven minutes uphill from the Viaduct, or ten in a car.
