Edinburgh nightclub Atik is set to close its doors for good this Saturday.
The Tollcross venue, known to generations as the Cavendish, Clouds, Outer Limits, Bermuda Triangle or Lava & Ignite, confirmed they will be closing their doors on 21 January.
The club, owned by REKOM UK, was unable to agree a new lease with the landlord. Staff were told on Monday, according to the Edinburgh Reporter.
The likes of Pink Floyd, The Jam and The Ramones took to the stage when it was known as Clouds in the 1960s.
In 1991, it reverted back to its original 1940s name of The Cavendish - after being called The Network - before becoming more dance music focused as Lava Ignite until 2012, with guests like Calvin Harris, Basshunter and Example.
In 2017 it changed names again to Atik, with its dancefloor also featuring in the film T2:Trainspotting.
A spokesperson on behalf of ATIK Edinburgh told Edinburgh Live: “We are sad to announce that ATIK Edinburgh will close on Saturday, having not been able to agree a new lease with the landlord.
“We would like to thank our loyal guests who have partied with us over the years and our employees who have helped create lasting memories.
“We are in consultation with our staff and plan to relocate as many as possible - we also hope to return to Edinburgh soon and are looking at a number of sites in the city.”
