Which British music venue holds the most legendary status in our cultural memory?

The Merseyside cellar where The Beatles cut their teeth across nearly 300 performances. It remains a pilgrimage site for anyone who cares about the origins of modern pop.

Not a venue in the traditional sense, but arguably the most watched stage in British music thanks to the BBC. A Pyramid headline slot is the closest thing we have to a coronation.

Factory Records' famously unprofitable club that birthed the Madchester scene and changed British nightlife forever. Its influence still echoes through dance music today.

From the Proms to Adele's career-defining residency, the domed Victorian hall lends gravitas to any performance it hosts. Few stages carry such weight of history.

A small basement that hosted the 1976 Punk Festival and helped launch the Sex Pistols, The Clash and Siouxsie. It still champions new music against all economic odds.
