Newtown club on Gwigwi Mrwebi Street hosting promoter-run nights such as UMGQIBELO, from 22:00 until morning, with tickets from R80 on Quicket.
Club A.M. is one of four venues on Gwigwi Mrwebi Street in Newtown and works as a hub for pop-up, dance-focused events run by promoters, according to In Your Pocket. Techno Airlines says it has no website of its own and sells tickets through Quicket, and it tags the club as electronic. One listed night, UMGQIBELO on Saturday 3 October 2026, was described as gqom and alternative dance music, started at 22:00 and ran until morning, with Quicket tiers of R80 and R140; it was hosted by SIBATHATHU and D[Nowhere]J.
On Resident Advisor, The Get Down on Tuesday 16 December 2025, the Day of Reconciliation public holiday, ran from 22:00 to 06:00 with Makhumalo, NKLY, Mr Fagwinter and Dom Nice, was listed as 21+ and priced at 100. Time Out quotes the club's management as saying "nightlife is culture, not just entertainment". Because the programme comes from promoters, opening days change from week to week. Not for you if you want a fixed weekly night.
Set by each promoter; the club has no website of its own, so check the Quicket or Resident Advisor listing for the night. Newtown clubs charge an entrance fee and stamp the wrist.
