The Marquee
Part of the iconic London music scene, The Marquee Club was a venue originally located at 165 Oxford Street, London.
It opened in 1958 with a range of jazz and skiffle acts but perhaps it’s most famous period was from 1964 to 1988 then located at 90 Wardour Street in Soho.
The venue finally closed when at 105 Charing Cross Road in 1996, though the name has been revived unsuccessfully three times in the 21st century.
It was know for launching the careers of generations of rock acts and was a key venue for early performances by bands who were to achieve worldwide fame in the 1960s, including the first-ever live performance by The Rolling Stones on 12 July 1962.
