Next week officially marks the return of Independent Venue Week! From Monday 29th January to Sunday 4th February, IVW 2024 cherishes the local venues that bless us with live music, club nights and more. We’re casting an eye over the best independent venues across the UK and this week we’re taking a look at Kanteena, a Lancastrian gem. 

Repurposed warehouse and ever-changing event space Kanteena is a multi-purpose venue at the centre of Lancaster’s nightlife. Originally built circa 1980 as a loading bay for an old brewery, the mutli-faceted venue has been transformed into an events venue, bar, social space and food court all wrapped up into one. For a venue as fresh-faced as this one, it’s quickly solidified its place in Lancaster’s social scene.
