Open Deck Vinyl Night

Bring Your Wax: Open Deck Night at The Commons Cafe.

Got a crate of records collecting dust, or itching to share your favourite vinyl spins with a welcoming crowd?

The Strictly Vinyl Collective is hosting a brand-new Vinyl Open Deck Night on Friday, 7th August at the wonderful Commons Café @ The Minories in Colchester

If you’ve been to a Strictly Vinyl Collective event before, you know the vibe: purely vinyl, quality sound and a deep appreciation for record culture.

This new open deck night is an exciting offshoot designed to give vinyl collectors, enthusiasts, and DJs of all experience levels a chance to step up to the decks. Whether you’re a seasoned selector or a bedroom DJ taking your very first spin in public, this is a supportive, pressure-free space to share the music you love.

We’ve got iconic Technics 1210s and a crisp, warm sound system ready to go.

The Vibe: Relaxed, friendly, and social

The Commons Café is a fantastic venue to kick back, listen to great music, meet fellow music lovers, and grab a drink
