Two revellers were stabbed at a major London nightclub yesterday as it held a special event to mark the May Bank Holiday weekend.

The victims were attacked at Studio 338 just before 10.30pm last night while thousands of people attended the club's Secretsundaze event.

The Ibiza-style mega-club in Boord Street, Greenwich, which can hold up to 3000 people, was evacuated while police investigated at the scene and the club night was subsequently cancelled.

Scotland Yard said two people, one of whom was a man, were taken to hospital suffering from stab wounds.

Neither victim's injuries were believed to be life-threatening, a Met Police spokesman said.

A man was arrested on suspicion of grievous bodily harm in connection with the incident.

One clubber, Fran Wong-Kwan-Lun, said people were "shocked and confused" after bar staff told them to leave the nightclub.

The 25-year-old festival product executive, who lives in Dalston, told the Standard: "My friends and I were at the bar and we were just ordering drinks when the music stopped.

"We did not know what was going on. And then the bartender said they could not serve us anymore because there had been a stabbing. It was all a bit of a palava. People were being pushed as they tried to leave the club. There was not a great management of the crowd."

She continued: "We went outside and there were all these police cars. Everyone was really confused. When we heard exactly what had happened we were shocked. I've been there before and nothing like that has ever happened."

Clubbers took to Twitter to complain that the incident had ruined their Bank Holiday weekend and some demanded a refund on tickets, which had been sold for up to £24.50 each.

One said: "Studio 338 what a terrible club full of terrible people."

Another wrote: "Studio 338 better give me my money back."

And one tweeter posted: "Unbelievable what happened at Studio 338, whatever happened to going out for the love of music and having a good time."

In response, a spokesman for the club tweeted: "Hey guys, thanks for all the messages! Just to be clear though, nobody died at the club last night."

The Evening Standard has contacted Studio 338 for comment.

A spokesman for Scotland Yard said: "Police were called at 22:24hrs on Sunday, 24 May, to a stabbing at the Studio 338 club in Boord Street, Greenwich. Officers and London Ambulance Service attended.

"Two men were taken to hospital suffering stab injuries. Neither is believed to be life-threatening.

"One man was arrested on suspicion of grievous bodily harm. He remains in custody at a south London police station."
