Midtown is awesome. With some amazing clubs, like
Pacha, and its easily accessible central location on the island, Midtown is a great place to spend a weekend night.
Someone must have given the owners of U.K. megaclub, Sankeys, the scoop because they are about to launch the biggest British invasion since that mop-headed foursome crossed the pond. Zagat recently reported that the Manchester nightclub will be revamping a former garage on West 50th Street in Midtown, creating a Sankey's satellite venue right in the heart of the Big Apple.
The club will be huge. With a projected maximum capacity of 1,100 party-goers in the over 16,000-square-foot venue, this nightclub is sure to host some amazing musical acts. Don’t fret, Sankeys faithful: the U.S. club will have a similar scene to its British brother (i.e. a revolving door of techno DJs and a strobe-heavy lighting design reminiscent of Sankeys). The Midtown megaclub is set to open in 2011, but so far this is all we've heard, so stay tuned to Clubplanet for more details.
