Zouk to shut until May 10, just days after grand reopening

Yesterday, the iconic nightspot said on Instagram that it would shut its doors at midnight until May 10, but did not give further details on why it was closing.

Zouk said: "The safety of our guests is a priority. We have stepped up safety distancing measures and doubled our security to ensure this.

"We look forward to welcoming you back to Zouk on May 11. In the meantime, stay safe and take care." When Zouk reopened its doors on April 20, long queues of clubgoers formed outside its premises in Clarke Quay.

The club had announced previously that it will operate every Wednesday, Friday and Saturday from 10pm to 3am.
