INFORMATION

TABU IS NOW RUMOUR

Tabu London is now Rumour. The club at 1 Dover Street in Mayfair trades under the Rumour name, so we no longer run a guestlist under the Tabu name: join the guestlist at Rumour instead.

Rumour is a new club, not Tabu with a new sign, so Tabu's theme, nights, music, entry fees and guestlist rules should not be assumed to carry over. As of October 2026, Rumour is an intimate room of around 200 people playing open format (hip hop, RnB and house), Wednesday to Saturday. Its guestlist is for ladies; mixed groups go in on a table. The Rumour guestlist page has the current details.

WHAT TABU WAS

When it traded as Tabu, the club was known for a Japanese, Tokyo-inspired interior with LED street signs and theatrical bottle shows, and for hip hop and RnB. Those details describe Tabu, not Rumour.
