The Beautiful Octopus Club, which takes place four times a year, is a club night for people with and without a learning disability. As well as catering for clubbers with a learning disability, the event was set up to meet the needs of performers. The club is now 15 years old. The authors report on the celebrations held at the Royal Festival Hall, London where the headline performers were a punk and hip-hop three piece, two of whom had a learning disability.
