A POPULAR city centre nightclub is celebrating a landmark birthday this weekend. 

Bamboo, which is located on West Regent Street, opened its doors in 2002 and is inviting revellers past and present to celebrate their 20th anniversary with them this weekend. 

Bamboo originally opened as a lounge and club where guests could relax on comfortable plush seating and food and drinks in one room and a clubbing experience in the other, before the basement venue then underwent a transformation which saw them create three club rooms, providing visitors with more dance space.

Brian Richards, owner, Bamboo and Bunker said: "There are few clubs in the UK who can boast of a 20-year legacy, and we’re proud to have achieved that.

"We’ve endured many challenges during that time, not least the last couple of years, and we’re grateful to still be among the first choices for clubbers in the city.

"I do have to tip my hat however to Mark Goldinger, a Glasgow stalwart of the nightclub scene for making it all possible, and who tragically passed away halfway through our tenure.

"It’s a testament to the club and everyone who works there, past and present that we get to celebrate such a milestone for the city"

He added: "Bamboo is a staple destination in the student clubbing scene and we are grateful to those who have visited us over the years.

"It’s not often a venue can continue to stay relevant two decades on and to see Bamboo thriving and entering a new era in its development is amazing, with phase one of our refit complete along with a rebrand and the next phase due to start in 2023, it’s really exciting to see."

Bamboo will be celebrating its birthday this weekend and will be hosting an extra special Hogmanay party in honour of its 20th anniversary at the end of the month.
