THE LOKALS

North of Kalayaan.

Nokal is an underground club in the heart of Makati, built for people who come for the music. Down a flight of stairs at Makati Cinema Square, the room runs on house, disco, soul and underground electronic music. We keep a strict music policy, and that's what gives Nokal its sound. No chart hits and no compromises, just DJs who know the floor and a crowd that came to dance. It's dark, intimate and loud in the right way, and it runs from 10PM till late.

  1. Kalayaan

    A bar, a diner, and a room for Poblacion regulars.

  3. 2022

    A new home in the basement of Makati Cinema Square.

“Why would people come here just to hear the same music everyone else plays? … I feel like everyone's just hungry for a new sound.”

The relaunch was backed by partners Marco Viray, Lee Watson, Raul Fores, and Jason Soong.
