Valentino Opening Party photoreport

It was a beautiful autumn evening in 2005, we went to dance in Gejzeer and Termix, and then it happened, on Friday 21st October 2005 a new gay club Valentino opened. At the time of opening this club caused a lot of changes. A lot of smaller clubs disappeared within a few months. On January 2006 the legendary Gejzeer, which was opened in 1996, went bankrupt. The historical photo report from when they first opened Valentino can exclusively found here: http://www.honilek.cz/old/valentino/valentino.htm


January 20, 2006 the owner of Valentino, Bedřich Kuvík, took over the premises of the former Gejzeer and this merger created a unique three-floor space. Photos from the three floor Valentíno here: http://honilek.cz/old/exclusive/ In the 7 year old photoreport there is Valentino’s new operator Karel Lipka.


In early 2011 the entire space was taken over by new owners and continued to operate under the name Valentino. Article from that time: http://www.honilek.cz/2011/07/15/onclub/


On 30th July 2011 the club closed again. Fotoreport here: http://www.honilek.cz/2011/08/02/valentino-closing-partyvalentino-closing-party/ and a list of those people is here: https://www.facebook.com/events/230277940328915/


Before the first Prague Pride in August 2011, the cafe and upper middle dance floor re-opened and two months later, under the name On Club. http://www.honilek.cz/2011/10/10/on_club_opening/ Due to the economic crisis and high drink prices, the number of customers shrank, despite a couple of attempts to revive the club.


In 2012 the club has fundamentally changed, but due to high rent and problems with the club owner, on January 5 2013 On Club ceased operations. http://www.honilek.cz/2013/01/17/on-club

At the opening party arrived a lot of people down played DJ Henriette and evaluation? On it you wait a minute! Look at the photo report, exclusive to Honilek.cz
