About Club Retro
Doors open at 5pm on Friday and stay open until 4am, while Saturday holds back until 9pm and runs through to 5am — which tells you most of what you need to know about how the two nights differ. Friday can begin as an after-work drink on Lonsdale Street and drift into something much later; Saturday is the busier of the two and arrives already committed, with the rooftop bar working as the release valve when the floor fills. The soundtrack leans on R&B, house and commercial hits alongside 80s, 90s and old-school selections, aimed squarely at a 25 to 45 crowd of local young professionals rather than a student night. Bottle service and VIP booths are available for groups, though the $$ band keeps the whole thing within reach. Smart casual is enforced. Closed Monday through Thursday and Sunday, so the weekend is the only window.
