Birmingham nightclub Mechu bids farewell after 14 years
Paradise roadworks are said to be the reason for Mechu’s departure
jessica chumberMechu bar and grill had to bid goodbye after 14 years due to roadwork disruptions. The club first opened its doors way back in 2003 and had always been a popular place for nightclub-goers. The nightclub had a farewell party on the 11th March.
Carrie Harvey, events manager for Elite Party Venues, said: “Alan and Benjamin (owners) wanted to see how things went, but have decided it’s time for new changes.”
However there are plans to open as a 3 in 1 club in May or early summer. Carrie added another comment about Paradise roadworks: “Once they are gone, it will certainly improve business. If it’s not extremely beneficial, they will have been a complete waste of time”.
A new name has been decided for Mechu’s replacement, but Carrie said it will not be released at this stage.
