It’s been closed for a long time. Someone has stated an intention to open it as a music venue, though I’ve not seen much activity there recently.Is it still open? Last I heard it was closed.
Things are progressing, apparently, on the music venue front.It’s been closed for a long time. Someone has stated an intention to open it as a music venue, though I’ve not seen much activity there recently.
Top Of The World has had Top Of The World events for some time. I think it's now classed as Couture and Top Of The World.A Top of The World return is being advertised on Facebook; I'm assuming it's here?
Loads of work ongoing and Aaron has been very active in communicating to people in facebook land and gathered loads of suggestions. I get the feeling he has a good focus on what the interior will look like, while asking local people for what sort of acts they would like to see.
Room 1 with a 900 standing capacity with ability to hold different seated events.
Room 2 with seats and a stage
He's also gathered interest on who would like to see happy hour sessions.
I think offering something different so other bars and businesses can benefit from footfall is what we need.
The whole place is to be refurbished and rebranded to Top of The World, and be more of an events venue than a nightclub.Top Of The World has had Top Of The World events for some time. I think it's now classed as Couture and Top Of The World.
Last I heard after they gutted the place and made it 100x worse than it was before they got the keys , they ran outta money. Now unfortunately, it's in such a mess , you're going to need some serious cash to do anything with it.Any updates?
I've had Aaron on my friends list for some time and messaged him some time ago, saying I noticed some trees growing on the roof that need ripping out before they cause real damage. I had no response and trees are still there. The Facebook page seems to have become a place for occasional "What's happening?" posts and people publicising other events!Any updates?
Tesco and Waterfront aren't exactly far away.Not terribly surprising, the rent and rates alone during refurbishment would have cost a fortune, unless they bought the building (it was going for £750k at one point)
Trouble is, it’s just not situated well either… the only nearby parking has a warden that’ll snipe you at 500 yards if you dare leave the site.
Mmm, true. Tesco has a time limit on it but I guess Waterfront works.Tesco and Waterfront aren't exactly far away.
You can book Tesco if you want to stay longer.Mmm, true. Tesco has a time limit on it but I guess Waterfront works.
