Club 051, the iconic Liverpool venue on the corner of Mount Pleasant and Brownlow Hill, is set to cease trading under its current name by the end of 2026. The club will be taken on by new management under the name Mount Pleasant Warehouse.
A Storied History and Revival
The club played a major role in the UK's nightlife during the 1990s and early 2000s, known for its resident DJs including Lee Butler and Dave Graham. However, from 2005 it did not host an event for more than a decade.
Lee and the team revived the site, with it reopening in 2023. Despite bringing the venue back to life, he spoke about the "incredibly challenging" reality of running a nightclub in a post shared last night, including the "time, commitment, costs and work" involved.
Final Event Announced
The "difficult decision" has been made for Club 051 to cease trading under its current name and brand at the end of the year. The final event at the venue in its current format will take place on Boxing Night.
