Name:Bali Hai Club Description: Streatham Ice Rink opened in 1931 and was instrumental in promoting Ice skating as a pastime in London. In 1966 The Bali Ha'i opened above the ice rink, due to England's draconian licencing laws it was open until a racy 1 am. The Bali Ha'I was also a popular venue for upmarket wedding receptions as this period film shows. https://www.londonsscreenarchives.org.uk/title/19745/ In the 70s and 80s the Bali Ha'I was synonymous with Reggae music as it was home to one of the top-ranking sound systems in South London, Soferno B. The Ice rink and club was demolished in 2011 but was thought to have closed some time before. [ Edited by: atomictonytiki 2019-06-04 13:15 ] |
