'An end of an era': LGBTQ-friendly Nectar Nightclub announces closure
Nectar Nightclub, an LGBTQ-friendly club in Bonifacio Global City, is closing its doors by January 2025.
The nightclub announced its closure in a post on Facebook on Nov. 17.
"Due to The Fort's upcoming closure, our final night of operation will be December 31st. It's the end of an era, but also a moment to celebrate the unforgettable experiences we've shared," it wrote.
Nectar first opened in October 2016 as a safe space for the LGBTQ+ community. It later underwent a revamp in September 2019.
"Through every beat, every celebration, and every friendship made, Nectar has been more than just a nightclub—it's been a second home for all of us," it continued.
The nightclub went on to share its calendar of events for the rest of the year, which includes a Christmas tree lighting, an anniversary celebration for its Poison parties, Drag Cartel, and a Christmas Day and New Year's Eve event.
Despite the club's closure, Nectar said that it's not the end yet.
"As we approach Nectar's final weeks, we're already planning for the next chapter: Nectar 3.0," it teased. "Until then, let's celebrate, reminisce, and give Nectar the send-off it deserves. See you on the dance floor one last time!"
Nectar is also known for serving as the home of Drag Race Philippines and Drag Den alums including Marina Summers, Xilhouete, Minty Fresh, and more.
