DJ, broadcaster and historian Haseeb Iqbal brings his board games and music night with games from around the world and an eclectic record collection to craft a space of connection and inclusivity.

Haseeb Iqbal is a DJ, writer and broadcaster from London. His work explores music, history and stories from around the globe. His radio documentaries on Worldwide FM and his own independent radio platform, haseebiqbal.world, have amassed a cult following for their in-depth research and emotive analysis, whilst his DJ sets have been celebrated for their eclectic brilliance. His monthly club residency Studio Crumb is currently one of the staples of the London club scene, drawing in diverse audiences.

His first book, Noting Voices: Contemplating London's Culture, was spotlighted as one of the most crucial pieces of cultural commentary on space and community in the last decade.
