Roxy has changed a lot since it first opened its doors in 1992.

 

oxy nightclub in prague

T
he old tea room is now a coatcheck, the admission price to parties has quadrupled and the old big screen U2 parties of mid-decade have been replaced by the most famous reliables in town: MIX, ZEN, and CLIMAX, to name a few. But some things are the same.

 

The Roxy PragueThe thousand capacity experimentalni prostor [experimental space] is still the only place where the clientele is more interested in sweating than being seen, still the only club that offers a raw and genuine vibe, and still the only place in town where you can catch freaky German art films one night and trip-hop dj's the next.

 

With its atypical and gently archaic interior the Roxy is one of the most favourite clubs of all time. I think that we can with justification call it a world rarity.

 

Perhaps Mr and Ms Disgruntled will want to know where the good old days went when it was truly home to the underground.

 

But we've again got the opportunity to experience that (and we hope it's not "the last one") in the gallery NO.D on the first floor, above the club space.
