China White London has closed. The club most people still search for as China White, Chinawhite or China Whites no longer operates, so its guestlist and tables can no longer be booked. Its last home, 4 Winsley Street near Oxford Circus, is now Selene, open Thursday to Sunday, 11pm to 4am as of October 2026, and we can put you on its guestlist free of charge or find your group a table at another open club tonight.
Is China White London still open?
No. China White closed in two stages, which is why old listings still confuse people:
- Air Street (until 2008): the original China White sat on Air Street, between Piccadilly Circus and Soho. It closed in December 2008 when the building was sold.
- 4 Winsley Street (from 2009): the club reopened in October 2009 at 4 Winsley Street, Fitzrovia, W1W 8HF, with Oxford Circus the nearest tube, which is the address Time Out's Chinawhite listing still shows.
- Libertine (from 2013): the Winsley Street club was relaunched as Libertine in 2013, after a partial rebrand to "Libertine by Chinawhite".
- Selene (now): Libertine has since closed, and Selene now operates at 4 Winsley Street.
So any page still offering a "China White guestlist" or China White table prices is out of date. If you liked the address, the nearest thing to China White today is Selene, in the same building.

- Beat Club London, 48 Margaret Street, Fitzrovia: an after-hours house club close to Winsley Street, open Friday, Saturday and select Thursdays from 1am to 6am. There is no guestlist, so entry is by table booking, from £1,000 minimum spend.

Searching for China White in another city?
The China White name has also been used for clubs outside London, and searches for Chinawhite often mix them up. This page and our booking service cover London only. Chinawhite Manchester has closed, so check any non-London listing carefully before you travel for it.
What China White was like
For reference only, as none of this applies any more: China White was one of the best-known names in London nightlife, first on Air Street and then at 4 Winsley Street, where it was listed as a Fitzrovia club a short walk from Oxford Circus. When the Winsley Street venue relaunched as Libertine in 2013, it was described as three interlinked spaces. If you are reading old reviews, remember that prices, door policies, music and opening nights from the China White years do not carry over to the clubs at that address today.
