Qube — Home of Modern Creatives
Qube Acton has 14 member studios across production, podcast and photography — all bookable 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
For a full equipment list for each studio, refer to the studio descriptions on the Bookings page in the Qube app.
Guides for the production and podcast studios are in every room. Follow the printed instructions or scan the QR code on the wall for step-by-step guidance.
Chat to Quinn in the Qube app or Member Portal. If Quinn can't resolve it, your query goes straight to the team and someone will follow up as soon as possible.
Our Community Team is on site seven days a week.
9:00 – 17:30
10:00 – 18:30
Ask Quinn first
Quinn is our AI assistant, in the Qube app and the Member Portal. It handles a wide range of questions and requests; anything it can't resolve is forwarded to the team, who'll follow up as soon as possible.
Message Quinn outside staffed hours and your query is still logged — someone picks it up when they're back on site.
For a technical issue in a studio out of hours, scan the QR code in the room for out-of-hours support and troubleshooting guides.

Please do not park in the private member spaces marked with bollards along the Qube building.
Your monthly credits reload on the 1st of each month at midnight. They expire in two stages, so you get a little more flexibility.
Expires at the end of the month it's issued.
Expires at the end of the following month.
While credits are active you can book sessions up to 10 weeks ahead. Once they expire, unused credits are removed and can't be used.
Studios cost fewer credits between 22:00 and 11:00. Every room is priced differently depending on the space and its spec.
Each studio's credit cost sits on its image on the booking page in the app.
Open the Benefits section at the bottom of the app homepage.
Need more studio time?
Buy extra credit packs any time via the Shopping Basket in the Qube app. Packs are valid for three months from purchase.
Cancel a booking or move its start and end time in the Qube app up to one hour before the session begins.
Can't make the change yourself, or need a hand? Contact the Support Team via Quinn in the app.
Guests are welcome at your session. As the booking holder, it's your responsibility to make sure they follow Qube's House Rules.
Read the house rules
Book the studio for the full time you need. If you need longer mid-session, extend the booking in the app before it ends where you can.
If you can't update it in time, or simply forget, we do monitor studio overstays. Your booking is adjusted automatically to reflect the extra time and the credits are deducted retrospectively.
We'd encourage everyone to manage their own bookings wherever possible, so your account and studio usage stay accurate.
Not enough credits to cover the extra time? The overstay is charged in £ at the applicable hourly studio rate — which can be up to twice the standard member rate — and collected in your next billing period.
Submit the relevant request form at least 30 days before you'd like the change to take effect.
Once submitted, your request goes straight to the General Manager of your home site, who'll review it and be in touch to confirm the change or ask for anything else they need.
As a Multi-Site member, switch between locations by tapping the three dots in the bottom-right of the app, selecting your current location, then choosing where you'd like to go.

Qube Acton
Acton needs your physical black access card for entry — remember to bring it if you're visiting.
On your first visit, arrive before 17:30 so a member of the team can activate your card for this location.
Be considerate. Treat the studios and common areas as you would your home, and leave them as you found them — clean and tidy.
Be responsible. You're accountable for the safety and behaviour of everyone who comes with you.
No under 18s. We're a strictly 18-and-over venue.
Be respectful. Vacate the studio by the end of your confirmed booking. Set-up and pack-down are inside your booking window.
No food in the studios. The communal lounges are there for refreshments and hot food.
Be mindful. Close studio doors fully on the way in and out — for safety, and to keep sound bleed down.
Strictly no smoking or vaping inside. Use the allocated areas — the garden or in front of reception.
Report damage to a member of staff immediately.
Pets are allowed. Supervised at all times, and off the furniture.
We operate 24hr CCTV.
Leave on time. Overstay past your end time and your booking is adjusted automatically, then charged retrospectively.
Fire exits
Take a minute with this before your first session. Exits are marked throughout the building.
Your membership includes our programme of creative industry events across all Qube locations — whichever site you call home.
Playback listening sessions, masterclasses, networking nights, Meet Your Match and other industry moments — there's something on every month. Everything upcoming is listed on the app homepage, and the monthly events email carries the full schedule.
There are over 700 members in the Qube community. Introduce yourself, ask a question, share an opportunity or start something on the Community Discussion Board in the app.
Every Qube has a story.
Questions left, or want a little extra support? You're always welcome to book an onboarding session.
We'll walk you through the Qube app, how booking works, and the tips and features that get the most out of your membership.
Book one any time via the Events page in the Qube app.
Got an exciting idea for an event or a partnership? We'd love to hear it.
Include as much detail as you can — the idea, preferred location, proposed dates, expected attendance and anything else relevant. It helps the team review and come back to you quickly.
How do I book a studio?+
Log into the Qube app, tap the basket in the middle of the bottom bar, and choose your studio and time.
How far in advance can I book?+
It depends on your membership tier.
How do I cancel a booking?+
Open the booking in the Qube app, hit cancel and confirm. You can't cancel within an hour of the start time.
Will my credits be refunded if I cancel?+
If you cancel in the same month you made the booking, credits return to your account automatically. If the booking was made in a previous month, that month's allowance is no longer available, so there's no refund.
Can I get credits back if my session finishes early?+
No — bookings are final and can't be cancelled or amended once underway.
What happens if I overstay my booking?+
Let a member of staff know and credits will be deducted from your account to cover the additional time.
Where do I check my credit balance?+
In the Qube app — scroll to the bottom of your homepage to see what's remaining this month.
How do I buy extra credit packs?+
Tap the shopping basket in the app and select Buy a Product. Choose the pack you need and purchase — credits land on your account immediately and roll over for three months.
How do I register guests before a session?+
Add them via the Attendees section on the booking form. Tap Invite Attendees and enter their name, email and phone number.
How many guests can I bring?+
Up to three guests in the lounge and co-work space. For a studio, check the app for that room's guest limit.
Can I leave my guests at Qube if I go?+
No. You're responsible for your guests and should be with them at all times while on site.
What if we exceed the room capacity?+
You'll need to move to a studio that fits everyone, subject to availability — it isn't guaranteed. Plan sessions accordingly to avoid disruption on the day.
Can I book for a friend or client if I won't be there?+
No — your membership is for you alone. If you need multiple cards and access for clients, upgrade to the Partner tier.
Does my membership work across all Qube sites?+
Members can request a multi-site upgrade for an additional 10% per month; Hackney members have multi-site access automatically. Multi-site members use their credits freely at any Qube site. Raise a support ticket in the app or desktop dashboard to upgrade.
How can I put my account on hold?+
If you want to stay a member but won't use your monthly credits for 30 days or more, you can put your account on hold. Schedules change — this is designed to keep your membership wherever your career takes you.
Terms & conditionsI've lost my membership card — what now?+
Let a member of staff know. A £20 charge is added to your monthly invoice to cover the replacement.
How often are member events? Do I pay?+
Every site hosts at least one member event a month, included in your membership. Reserve tickets and see what's coming up in the Events section of the app.
Is there anywhere I can reach the community?+
Yes — post on the discussion board. It's a good place for site updates and for finding members looking to connect and collaborate.
How do I contact Qube staff via the app?+
Tap Helpdesk, then the + button, and complete the form to create a ticket.
Where can I see bookings, invoices and credits?+
Tap the compass icon at the bottom left of your screen for everything in one place.
