Printworks is a nightclub and events venue in Rotherhithe, South London. It is located in the former Harmsworth Quays printing plant,[1] which printed newspapers including the Daily Mail and Evening Standard until 2012.[2]

Some features of the printing plant have been retained including the van loading dock and metal stairs, creating an industrial feel in the club. The premises has an overall capacity of 6,000 people[3] across two performance rooms (the Press Halls and the Darkroom).

It opened in 2017[4] with an event by Seth Troxler, The Martinez Brothers and Loco Dice.[5]
