Glasgow's Savoy nightclub in £500k refurbishment as iconic 'sticky carpet' ripped up

After nearly half a century of serving Glasgow's nightlife crowds, the Savoy is set to close for a huge makeover.

That's right, the team will be ripping up the legendary sticky carpet as part of a massive £500,000 refurbishment that will see the famous club given a brand-new look.

The team say this Bank Holiday Savoy Sunday will be the last night to party before the team of builders arrive to start work.

The refurb crew will then work day and night to create a brand-new layout with sumptuous new booths, a stylish new design and modern décor throughout.

Speaking about the facelift for the iconic club, manager Tinky Ranasinghe said: “Having been at the heart of Glasgow nightlife for 48 years it felt like the right time to give the club a new modern look."

The club will be closed from Monday, May 8 and will reopen just over a week later with a VIP launch party on Friday, May 19.

Tickets for the event will be available from thesavoyglasgow.com.
