Carbon Nightclub in Galway City has announced plans for a reopening nearly five years after it shut down.
The popular venue shut its doors back in 2019 after long being one of the hotspots of Galway’s nightlife for young people.
The venue posted news of the planned reopening on its Instagram account and advised people to stay tuned for updates.
“We are back! Thrilled to announce the long-awaited return of Carbon Nightclub to Galway’s nightlife scene! After a hiatus since 2019, we’re hard at work bringing back the magic.”
“Stay tuned for updates as we prepare to unveil an unforgettable experience. Get ready to dance, laugh, and create new memories. This time is gonna be bigger and better. The countdown begins now!”
The property was bought by Wetherspoons after the nightclub closed down, with the intention of turning it into another pub in the chain.
Planning permission was granted in March 2023 for the renovation of the property to a pub, which was going to be called The Three Red Sails.
However, Wetherspoons announced that it was divesting from a number of Irish properties and pubs late last year as market conditions changed.
It was also recently announced that Electric and Cuba nightclubs in Galway City are also reopening.
