Tokyo Jo's Reunion

Tokyo Jo's is coming back for a one-night reunion at Chew's Yard on Thursday 28 November, with DJ Brian Hudson on the decks. It's a single-night return of the club night, built around classic dancefloor sounds.

If you haven't spent much time there, Chew's Yard is Preston's only food hall, housed in a disused warehouse and joinery workshop. It takes its name from an 18th-century artisans' yard and the historic alleyway that links Friargate and Market Street West. The whole place works across three interconnected spaces: a food and drinks hall with five independent traders, a versatile events room that hosts live music, DJs, markets and arts events, and a leafy, walled garden, with the raw surfaces and atmosphere of the original working buildings kept just as they were. Much of the design draws on Preston's own cultural history and personalities, and the bar is run by chef Paul Heathcote's company, Escapade.

Beyond the music, the programme there takes in a chess club, a book club, a running club and creative workshops, alongside vintage and art-and-craft markets. The Tokyo Jo's reunion fits into that events room, the same space that hosts the live music and DJs. It's a one-off, so it's a single night rather than a regular return to the calendar.

It all goes down on Thursday 28 November, starting at 7pm in the Event Space at Chew's Yard, 111 Market Street West, Preston PR1 2HB. Brian Hudson will be handling the music, with the night focusing on the classic dancefloor sounds that defined the original Tokyo Jo's.
