Leader announces new nightclub set to open in Market Square

Published date

The Leader of Harlow Council, Councillor Dan Swords, has today announced that an agreement has been reached for the former nightclub in The Rows to be refurbished and reopened, marking another major step in the regeneration of the northern end of Harlow town centre.

The venue, which was once home to well-known nightspots including Seen, Heights 2000, HighWire, Liquid and Millennium, has been closed for several years as this part of the town centre fell into decline. Now, with construction underway and regeneration gathering pace, Harlow Council has reached an agreement with a new operator to bring the building back into use.

The reopening of the nightclub represents a significant moment in efforts to restore Harlow’s evening economy and re-establish Market Square as a vibrant destination for nightlife, leisure and entertainment.

The announcement comes as construction work continues at pace across Market Square, including work to transform Market House, The Rows, Adams House and the square itself with new bars, restaurants, nightlife, high-quality office space and so much more.

Announcing the new nightclub, Councillor Dan Swords, Leader of Harlow Council, said:

“Nightlife is coming back to Harlow! For years, this part of the town centre has been left empty and derelict. The nightclub in Market Square - once at the heart of so many great nights out - has stood closed for far too long. But not anymore. I’m delighted to announce that we’ve reached an agreement with a new operator to refurbish and reopen this iconic venue as part of our wider regeneration of the northern town centre.

“We said we would rebuild the town centre. We said we would bring nightlife back. And we are delivering. And the best part? People won’t have long to wait as the new Market Square is just months away.

“We are rebuilding our town, reviving our nights out, and Building Harlow’s Future.”
