Nightclub plan for former city centre bar
GoogleA new nightclub is set to open in the building that previously housed the Revolucion de Cuba bar.
Management of a new venue in The Strand called NINE have submitted a licensing application to Derby City Council.
The website for NINE features a countdown ticker that suggests it is due to open its doors for the first time on 12 June.
In January, it was announced that 21 venues from the Revolution bar chain would close, including the Derby location, after the company fell into administration.
Applicant ABJ 30 Ltd has written to the city council asking for a similar licence to the one that was in place for Revolucion de Cuba.
The company said in its application: "We are seeking to reinstate the premises licence for a new landlord which lapsed through insolvency of the previous premises license holder.
"The application reflects very similar terms and conditions to the previous premises license.
"Other than cosmetic changes in decoration and upholstery, the layout will remain as per the previous licence plan."
According to the Companies House website, ABJ 30 Ltd was set up earlier this year and is based in Derby.
The NINE website says the new "premium nightclub" will offer an atmosphere "unlike anything Derby has seen before".
The Local Democracy Reporting Service has approached ABJ 30 Ltd for comment.
