Flat 0/1 Glasgow

Are casual house (gaff) parties more appealing to you than getting dolled or suited up to venture out to a tailored, high end nightclub? Would you much rather 'down' one of the old Glasgow favourites; MD 20/20, Frosty Jacks, Lambrini or Red Stripe; or nurse a more sophisticated wine or lager that you will pay an arm and a leg for? If the latter doesn't sound like fun then you're in luck!

Flat 0/1 provides the biggest and best house parties Glasgow has ever seen every Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday night! This 'gaff' is open to the general public and best of all is free entry! 

You will find the flat at 162 Bath Street and opening times are available here 

This venue is very cosy and homelike with a selection of couches available, the swinging bathtub chairs chained to the ceiling and the double bed that's situated to the back of the room for those who have danced their socks off on the dance floor and are in need of a lie down!  

There are a variety of drinks on sale including the Glasgow favourites earlier mentioned and the pricing for 'the booze cupboard' can be viewed here 

The club has its own resident DJ’s that keep the party alive with tunes from a range of genres: reggae, hiphop, RnB, techno, electronic, disco, house, garage and drum and bass! So whatever your taste, the ‘gaff’ will most likely be playing some of your favourites.

This is video footage of the New Years Eve 2014 flat party where resident DJ Rumours was in charge of the tunes for the night, to give you an idea of what to expect inside the 'gaff.' The dance floor was packed and the venue had reached its maximum capacity! It was one of the best nights I've ever experienced in Glasgow with everyone in high spirits celebrating the bells and if you pause the video at exactly 0:14 you will see my three friends dancing at the bottom, as they were waiting at the bar!
