Club Cubic, one of Macau's best-known nightclubs, closed for good today, City of Dreams Macau announced.
The gaming resort in Cotai said in a statement today that "City of Dreams Macau has taken over the management and operation of its nightclub," adding that "Club Cubic will cease operations" today.
The statement said that "the nightclub will reopen as soon as the current [COVID-19] health precautionary measures are lifted by the Macau government," adding that the nightclub "will be operated under a new name."
The statement did not reveal the nightclub's new name. Macau's entertainment venues (apart from casinos) have been ordered closed by the government since Wednesday in response to a four-member COVID-19 cluster of renovation workers from the Chinese mainland and Vietnam.
The statement said that "all local employees will be offered the option to continue to be involved in the operation of the nightclub."
Club Cubic opened in April 2011, covering about 2,800 square metres on two levels in the City of Dreams (COD) casino-hotel resort owned by Melco Resorts & Entertainment, which is headed by Hong Kong businessman Lawrence Ho Yau Lung whose father Stanley Ho Hung Sun founded Macau's modern gaming industry in the early 1960s.
