Koko (previously called the Music Machine and Camden Palace) is a concert venue and former theatre in Camden Town, London.
The building was known as Camden Palace from 1982 until its 2004 purchase and extensive restoration, led by Oliver Bengough and Mint Entertainment. Following the restoration, the venue was renamed as Koko, and is one of the premier live music venues in London.
The venue is a fixture for many music, fashion and art partygoers and notoriously famous for its London nightlife scene.
On the evening of 6 January 2020, a large fire broke out in the building.
