I can tell you all this has F**K ALL to do with o***m

And the name and brand is still owned and alive

O***m won’t die and it won’t be brought back by cheeky bastards trying to earn a quick buck off our success!

Dear O***m Family,

Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end. After 13 unforgettable, memorable years, we have closed our doors for the very last time.

When we first began O***m our goal was to create the perfect independent indie music venue.
We wanted to bring you the best, local acts and also the biggest acts from across the greatest genre of music!

Over the years, we’ve brought you, The Blossoms, Sunshine underground, Reverend and the makers, Slaves and the Twang amongst many others.
Not to forget the legendary O***m silent discos!

O***m has been something we’ve been so proud of and we’ve loved having you all along for the journey - like one big family!

Unfortunately, as is the case for many other businesses (particularly the small, independent and those in hospitality) the demise in trade has been drastic since covid!

Covid has crippled the hospitality industry, especially the late night venues.
Alongside the dramatic change in drinking culture.

Also, we feel the need to highlight, adding to the struggle for independent nightlife businesses is the council’s lack of support and their intention to move all hospitality to the Glassworks. Offering unaffordable rent for an overpriced council property that only multimillion pound companies will ever be able to afford.
We fully supported the positive changes to our town, but feel like it has had a detrimental effect on many local businesses with many forgotten.

An example of this is the very first Christmas after covid, a time when the local bars and restaurants should have been buzzing, all in desperate need of trade, Barnsley Council pulled trade away from the bars to Mandela Gardens where they had hired an out of town tipi company.

Although we hope we are wrong, we feel that recent events in the Glassworks are just the beginning.

We have tried to stay afloat, we have given it our everything, but with mounting debts, the change in drinking culture and the lack of support from our local council, we have been left with no choice.

We wish everyone who has supported us over the years, all the luck and happiness in the future!
Thankyou to all our amazing team, our management, staff, DJs, door staff and all you beautiful people, past and present, some of whom, have become our forever friends.
Thankyou, from the bottom of our hearts for your love ❤️

Independent Barnsley business owners, good luck and smash it!
You will forever have our support.
