SINGAPORE – Entertainment and lifestyle experiences operator Zouk Group will shut all three venues of its eponymous Singapore nightclub at Clarke Quay for renovations from the first quarter of 2026.
The three venues are its flagship Zouk Mainroom; Capital, aimed at working professionals; and Phuture, targeted at young adults.
Each concept will undergo a full renovation under the phased revamp, starting with Capital, which will close its doors on Jan 17, said the group.
Renovation works are targeted to be completed by June 2026, in time to commemorate its 35th anniversary, Zouk Group said, adding that the club anticipates a 20 per cent increase in traffic following the renovation.
All speaker systems across the venues will be upgraded to concert-grade technology, and an increase in venue capacity will enable the spaces to accommodate 3,500 people in total, up from 3,000 now.
Other highlights include 12m-wide high-resolution LED walls in the Mainroom, a redesigned entrance for Mainroom and Phuture, and an upgraded VIP sofa experience with plush seating behind the DJ booth in all three venues.
The transformation of Zouk Mainroom will include a fully modular layout with movable acoustic walls to allow spaces to be expanded or sectioned as needed for diverse event formats, from intimate performances to large-scale launches, said Zouk Group.
The iconic club will remain at CQ @ Clarke Quay until 2031, following a lease renewal from landlord CapitaLand Integrated Commercial Trust, which will start in June.
“Zouk’s reinvention of its ‘hometown’ club... will bring fresh energy and expanded experiences that directly support our mission of shaping CQ as a dynamic lifestyle destination,” said Mr Nicholas Lee, centre manager at CQ @ Clarke Quay.
The entertainment and lifestyle group added that Zouk’s day-to-night programming will offer diverse audiences a variety of experiences, ranging from signature DJ sets and live acts to fashion pop-ups, wellness sessions, business tourism events and creative networking activations.
