Future of iconic Nottingham nightclub remains uncertain

The owners of Pryzm have appointed administrators

A Nottingham nightclub could close after its owners called in administrators.

The future of Pryzm, owned by Rekom, is uncertain, said its owners.

The Lower Parliament Street building is described as "bare" inside, and there were reports of people moving stock out on Tuesday.

The venue has operated under numerous names, including Oceana, Palais and Ritzy, during its near 100-year history.

Rekom confirmed it plans to bring in administrators as it struggles with higher bills.

The nightclub owner admitted last year that its venues were struggling because of poor midweek trading that was usually driven by students.

Nottingham is no longer named on the Pryzm website as a venue.

A spokesperson said: "As you know, Rekom UK appointed administrators last week to review its business.

"This work is still ongoing, and plans are not 100% confirmed."

'Looking pretty bare'

It was one of the prime destinations for a night out in Nottingham, but seemingly no more.

Pryzm, which is particularly iconic because of the giant globe on top of the building, may have served its last drink and played its final song.

As I look at it now, it doesn't look any different to how it does on a weekday. However, I did briefly have a glimpse inside earlier and it's looking pretty bare.

I spoke to someone who couldn't confirm whether they've closed for good, but did say people have lost their jobs.
