Welcome to World Headquarters Music Club.
Hey, thanks for coming to see us at our cute, comprehensive, little Website…
It’s clearly laid out, so you can quickly get show info & gossip, or stick about a while if you fancy & easily find out all about us. This is our Homepage, which scrolls down, letting you know what’s up with our site, what to expect & where to find the bits ‘n bobs.

About this Website…
This little corner of cyberspace is the one place where you can find out all about Curtis Mayfield House Independent Multiracial Arts Venue, which is home to World Headquarters Music Club. It also features stuff about Newcastle life that you may find useful, if you’re dropping in from out of town, or visiting up here with your fly chums.
We update our site regularly with details of all our antics & cool things to look at & read. It’s also the first place we announce all our upcoming, independently promoted clubnights, fashion shows, A-list events, art exhibitions & any other mad stuff we think is astonishing, interesting & fun. We hope you will like it & we are pleased to see you.
We really hope you’ll find time to scroll the rest of the pages too & that you enjoy your visit. If you have a bit of time on your hands & you are interested in what the Club means to Newcastle, get your mind blown by checking out our History & Culture tag.
There is a lot of info on this site, all of it super easy to find and read. Do feel free to have a good mooch about & see how we’ve got on, in our never ending, obsessive quest to make a difference, by adding lasting value & diversity to Newcastle’s nightlife.
Who we are…
Basically the deal with us is, we’ve run clubs up here longer than anyone else & have stayed completely independent, evolving outside of & parallel to, what most people perceive to be the Newcastle ’scene’. WHQ is nothing like any other place in this City.
We use the established media as little as possible, exisiting on word of mouth, recommendation & just being generally friendly, positive & consistent in our things. We operate firmly outside the coroporate mainstream, in terms of both the music & type of events we promote at WHQ Club & the cutting edge art projects we facilitate.
To find out more about WHQ Club or Hiring the Venue click the tags at the top of the page & they will tell you all that & all about our fantastic weekends, top notch coming events & our unique, spiritually uplifting groove. All you will need to know is on this site.
Hitting the History & Culture tag will give you a an idea of how we built a girl friendly, all inclusive, credible & cosmopolitan alternative to Newcastle’s stereotyped nightlife, from 80’s boredom, a desire for racial harmony, hard work & a big box of fab records.
Please feel free & Contact Us with anything you’d like to know or say, we’d love to hear from you. All pics shown on the site are captioned & some enlarge as you click them.
Also don’t forget to check the link to our Photo Albums where you can get a good idea of what we represent, snaps of assorted people monkeying about the Club & the way things look.
