The Westville Warehouse has single-handedly revitalized the live music scene in the Durban suburbs. As the name suggests, the venue has a spacious, open-plan warehouse feel, utilizing exposed brick, wood, and industrial lighting to create a warm, inviting pub atmosphere. It fills a massive gap in the KZN market for a mid-sized venue that can host full bands with good sound.
The venue is unpretentious and focuses heavily on “good times,” serving craft beer on tap and a wide variety of pub food. It has become the go-to stop for touring bands visiting KwaZulu-Natal who need a reliable venue with a guaranteed crowd. The musical policy is broad, covering everything from tribute bands and classic rock to modern indie and blues rock. The stage is well-positioned, ensuring good views from the tables and the standing areas. It is particularly popular for its weekend gigs where the local Westville community mixes with music lovers from greater Durban.
