The 2,500sq.m nightclub lies beneath a vaulted ceiling, and has a spacious disco floor, as well as two exclusive areas for private parties and VIPs. Nine bars located on the three levels operate around the clock. The Nightclub offers shows of all kinds, from disco music, dazzling light and laser shows to live entertainment, theatre and cabaret shows, while the lounge offers a more intimate and relaxing atmosphere with seductive lighting, soft music, appetizers, cocktails, and desserts all served by an expert staff.
The beach club has a large pool with an artificial wave-maker able to create waves of over 20,000 gallons per minute where you can surf and participate in other water sports even on a competitive level. In addition there are three bar-restaurants with huge terraces, jacuzzis and beach cabanas.
The lighting system is in line with the trend-setting image Kurt Jansen wanted his club to project: "I knew Clay Paky to be one of the world's most prestigious and reliable brands. I contacted Jorge Aguirre at Vector 10, who distributes Clay Paky products in Mexico. I quickly realized that these projectors were the best both for optics as well as colour projection. I created a light design outline with Jorge and Francesco Romagnoli, the Clay Paky manager for the Americas, that guaranteed maximum lighting performance for each area." Now, having been open for a few months and abe to gauge the response of the public, he is confident of having made a good choice.
The Clay Paky lighting system inside The City includes 18 Stage Profile Plus SVs, 18 Stage Zoom 1200s, 36 Stage Color 1200s, 64 Stage Light 300s, 48 Stage Scans, 150 Mini Scan HPEs, four Astroscans, and four Shadow QS-LTs - making a total of 342 projectors. The projectors are installed in all of the different areas that make up the club. The majority were installed inside the club on a totally motorized structure able to reach a height of 12 meters.Also installed are a superior quality laser system, a 9 x 5m maxi video screen, a Meyer Sound audio system with 5.1 surround sound and not to mention a top level staff of DJs, LJs, entertainers and vocalists.
