Heaven Under the Arches opened in 1979, is London’s largest and longest running gay night club. It is situated under the arches of Charing Cross Station in the West End of London. It was famously owned by Richard Branson for many years. It is now run by Jeremy Joseph of G-A-Y night club, which was hosted in the now demolished Astoria and Astoria II night club in Charing Cross Road.

Heaven is on the site of the previous gay pub Hotel de France. In 1925, John Bull magazine exposed six notorious homosexual hang-outs including the Hotel de France.
