About YAZ Youth Café & Nightspot
YAZ is a youth café and nightspot created by NEAD for young people aged 11 to 19 in central Workington. It opened in October 2026 on Pow Street and offers somewhere welcoming to meet friends, try activities and enjoy time together away from the usual adult nightlife.
What can you do at YAZ?
Inside there are gaming facilities, virtual reality, pool, music, a café area and places to sit and chat. Activities and the programme are shaped by young people, rather than being a one-size-fits-all youth club.

Do you need to be a member?

The current regular sessions are Fridays 5pm to 10.30pm and Saturdays noon to 10.30pm. YAZ also runs alcohol-free, supervised monthly under-18s rave nights, with separately advertised dates and times. Check NEAD before travelling, particularly during school holidays.
Where is it?
YAZ is at 51 Pow Street, Workington, CA14 3AB, right in the town centre. Membership and visitor information are available through the official NEAD website.

Our local note
A genuinely useful new youth-focused place in Workington. Free membership, supervised sessions and a mix of gaming, music and social space make it particularly valuable for local teenagers and families.
