Longstanding Newport nightclub set to close after more than a decade

A late-night bar in Newport is set to close down and be replaced with a "21st-century" nightclub. Breeze, which has been based on Cambrian Road for more than a decade, will close for good on Saturday, September 10, it was confirmed on Thursday.

In a statement online, the club said it would be closing its doors after "many years as an integral part of the Newport city centre pub and nightclub scene". Breeze, which has gone under names such as Rat & Parrot in the past, was previously run by well-known Newport publican John Pisani who died last April.

It won't be empty for too long, however; it's set to be replaced by a new bar described as a "21st-century, Instagrammable" nightclub featuring regular in-house DJs, live music and a complete internal revamp which will see its main bar demolished.
