A city centre-based nightclub, which didn't make it past its second anniversary, has been fondly remembered as a "hidden gem" which was "full of life."
OUT!, arguably one of the most colourful clubs to grace the city, was a safe space welcoming those from all walks of life. Opening in July 2018, the LGBTQ+ venue spread across three floors and featured a showroom, multiple dance floors and bars, a games room and was even described as a venue “thrown up from Katy Perry’s California Girls video". Dotted around the venue, on Cumberland Street, were references instantly recognisable to any true drag race fan.
On Friday and Saturday nights, guests were entertained by a performance every 30 minutes from an in-house show team featuring Krissy Friday, Azzuro Penderghast and Violet Period-Pain. The bar joined the likes of Fusion, Level, SoHo, and McCooley’s as part of the Pub Invest Group and after customers were finished in OUT! they were guaranteed free entry to its sister club, Heaven, just a stone's throw away on Victoria Street.
