By Alistair Baker-Brian, May 28, 2021

One of Beijing’s favorite nightclubs Aurora is to re-open in the capital.

In a post on their WeChat account, Aurora said they would open at a new venue in the Gongti area of Sanlitun opposite the former site of the Workers’ Stadium. The post said that from Friday June 11 until Sunday June 13, they will hold a 3-day party.

There were also some clues as to the layout of the new venue. On the first floor, there will be a Mexican restaurant along with a hip-hop and Latino music room. Meanwhile, on the second floor, there will be an electronic music room as well as a special events room.

The previous Aurora venue in Beijing closed on March 27 of this year. The venue told That’s that the decision was a “sudden” request of the new building management. The previous venue was located on Sanlitun Xijie which used to be colloquially known as the ‘dirty street’ before undergoing something of a transformation.
