From Joanna’s to Ritzy to Tiger Tiger, plenty of iconic venues have closed down over the years – with Pryzm being the most recent venue added to the list after closing last year.
The city has no doubt been home to some absolutely sensational venues and The News has decided to look back at some of most historic and iconic clubs in the city that cease to exist.
Here are 17 nightclubs that have shut over the years:
17. The Birdcage

18. Popworld
If you want a throwback to the 90s then Popworld is giving you the chance to Party Like Its 1999. Partygoers are invited to don their best 90s attire with DJ Munz playing dance floor fillers from the era. Tickets can be purchased in advance costing between £5 and £10.
