Club Vie in Rotterdam reopened its doors on Friday 1 March after a complete renovation. Our colleague Armand Sol was invited for the premiere and visited the venue. Club Vie is partly positioned under the ‘Willemsbrug’ and has two floors. The lower floor ‘The Jaxx’ has a nice river view and a ceiling that changes color. The upper floor has a dance floor and four different sitting areas on various levels. Because of the playful location of these sitting areas, the club breathes an intimate atmosphere that is not usual in other similar sized clubs.
