    Small and dark, this venue has bars that restrict the movement of people. If full it means you can go nowhere. Also terrible if you are short, it's hard to see anything. The toilet is unlabelled at the side of the stage and in reasonable condition given the vibe of the place. You have to think whoever named it Luxor had a sense of humour because the pits of hell or Squalor would have been far more descriptive!

    Disastrous place. Looks like built 30 years ago and never maintained since then. Claustrofobic. I've been in a lot of show venues in my life but for the first time i felt like that if anything unexpected happened people would kill each other in there. Apart from that - not a good view of the stage, toilets are dirty and it's really difficult to get to them. Sorry but decent bands don't deserve to perform in such place.

    Narrow scene, not well suited for big events. But you can stay very close to artists

    This venue had a weird way of letting people in. Only guests with hard tickets were allowed inside initially. Everyone with a "print-at-home" ticket was forced to wait outside. I got there early (about 0.5h before the doors opened) and still missed a good part of the opening act, because we were left waiting outside. Staff was unfriendly and did not explain what was happening, and why. The venue itself was way too small for the amount of people they let in. I highly doubt it was safe. Since the ceiling is pretty low, the stage had to be aswell. Result? If you don't stand in the front row you can't see anything. I understand a small venue makes the most of its profit out of the liquor sales, but the prices were just ridiculously high. I left early since I didn't felt comfortable because of the crammed feeling, the non existent stage view and the attitude of the staff. This was by far the worst music venue I've ever visited in Cologne. E-werk, the Gloria, Live Music Hall or KulturKirche are all way better than Luxor, though I can imagine it being a fun place for parties and stuff, but it just didn't work as a live music venue for me.

    Annoyingly small venue. Go early or else you cant see anything if behind the sound control or on the left of the stage by the bathrooms... Acoustics were fine thankfully. WC is all the way in the back left of the stage so good luck and be careful not to break an ankle on the weirdly set up ramps that are also very poorly lit! Approachable door staff saved them a star.

    I was here for a concert, not sold out. The venue is really small and was very full of people. Combined with the stage being very low to the ground, I think a lot of people did not have a good view of the band at all. Along with there being only one exit, it did not feel very safe. Ventilation in the room is not good either, it was immediately very warm despite the cold weather. However, they did hand out some free water to the crowd, so that was nice, and the concert was amazing.

    Very nice club but also very small, so the concerts are going to be loud. Also Parking near LUXOR can be annoying. 3,7/5 ~~ 4/5

    It's remarkable how the bar staff manage to talk louder than the band on stage. Private bar staff conversation is not what I came here for. Acoustics at this venue are also pretty poor.

    Visited this place to watch Gavin James concert about a year ago. The overall performance is very remarkable. However, the place is quite small for a concert like this.

👍👍 Looks like some one came for camping with huge tent near Dom. Nice blue colour with light especially in the night. Beautiful view from Hohenzollern bridge. It’s in the middle of the city and very close to the Railway station also. Once I was inside and the sound quality is superb. Wash room and smal...

👍👍 An incredible place with a great collection of cars to buy and admire. It is completely free to enter something that absolutely blew my mind considering it houses the Michael Schumacher Private collection museum.
