Farewell Crowded Dayclubs and Nightclubs

Nightclubs have a long uphill battle coming out of the pandemic. Some nightclubs in Las Vegas see thousands of patrons pass through their doors each night. Post pandemic, people will be less willing to pack shoulder to shoulder on dancefloors, in queues outside nightclubs, and at packed bars waiting for drinks. This discussion is primarily the large-scale nightclubs, not the smaller often local venues, we’re discussing the big ones!

As guests enter nightclubs, at least near term, don’t be surprised to see staff taking the temperature of guests entering the venue. Additionally, expect hosts, managers, cashiers, and all other staff to be wearing masks and in some cases gloves. The need for cleaning staff now is tremendously more important as well as thousands of people touching surfaces will be next to impossible to keep sanitized.

Dayclubs are another beast entirely. Packed with patrons, just like nightclubs, they add the risk of a giant petri dish for patrons to bathe in, splashing around for all to share – the pool. A nightmare scenario.

Unlike a typical hotel resort pool, where volume is lower and it is easier to manage cleanliness and sanitation, dayclub pools often have hundreds of people entering and exiting the water at once. It’s next to impossible to ensure sanitation at this level. One way expected to mitigate the impossible cleaning task will be to limit the number of people in the water at any given moment.
