Deal done to secure club
London nightclub Fabric has been taken out of administration after a deal was done to secure its future.
Founded over a decade ago, Fabric has pushed itself to the forefront of dance music in the UK and beyond. A forward thinking music policy has seen the venue influence trends, with the club eager to support new talent.
Spawning its own highly successful mix series, Fabric was sadly placed into administration earlier this month. The owners of the club had borrowed heavily to finance new project matter, which collapsed under the weight of its own debts.
As a result, renewed pressure was placed on Fabric and the London venue was put into administration. The club vowed to fight on, and at no point was it forced to close its doors.
However it seems that a deal has been done to save Fabric permanently. Reports in CMU Daily suggest that the club's owners have managed to secure all the assets and transfer them to another company - run by Fabric's current owners.
"The Fabric company – Fabric 591 – had guaranteed loans invested in Matter, and it seemed like those liabilities could take all the Fabric empire down" the report reads.
"Administrators were called in at the start of the month and it seems they might be able to rescue the central London club by transferring key assets to a new company called Fabric Life, which was incorporated last month."
“We await an official statement on the matter, though the statutory notice announcing the firm’s administration originally posted, albeit in tiny print, on the club’s website, has been removed.”
The news comes as welcome relief to London's beleaguered clubland. Recently, the capital's dance scene has endured the closure of matter, Fabric, Plastic People and T-Bar.
