Timeline:
It’s dead
The first thing that we see as we walk in, is that the entire place is dead. Amazingly dead. There were approximately zero people on the dancefloor, and about 10-20 people around the floor. It was a sad sight, maybe the promoters weren’t bothered seeing it was the final night.
The modelling show
Tonight was the finals of who is the prettiest girl, and there were 8 beauties. You would imagine people would pack this place out for this event, but not really. The girls strutted their stuff, and someone won $1000. Nobody was here to see them compete at all. It was a shame. Here’s a little snippet:
We are bored
There is only so much dancing on your own as a group that you can do. So it’s silly photo time in the club:
Arrivederci
The place closed at 2AM, and not the usual 4AM, which was surprising, but also not surprising considering the deadness of the place.
Recommendation
I can no longer recommend Havana for a night, however it doesn’t matter anymore, as tonight was the last night of the Candy Dreams events.
Candy Dreams (Final Night) – 2/10.
Note that Havana has reopened as club One.Six.Nine . Appears to be a gay club, but I am not sure.
