After more than five years of lighting up the city’s nightlife, Garage, one of Accra’s most popular nightspots, has announced it will close its doors for good at the end of June.
The news has sparked an outpouring of emotion from partygoers, DJs, artists, and the wider community who have called Garage their second home.
Garage was more than just a place to dance and have a good time. Since opening its doors five and a half years ago, it quickly became a cultural landmark in Accra. What began as a bold idea turned into a movement, a space where music, food, art, and unforgettable memories came together. For many, Garage was where Accra truly came alive at night.
Over the years, Garage hosted thousands of nights filled with music, laughter, and celebration. It became a meeting point for people from all walks of life. DJs and performers found a stage, artists found an audience, and friends found a place to connect.
The club’s message to its fans captured this spirit: “We’ve hosted thousands of nights, countless cheers, and built a community we’ll never forget.”
News of the closure has been met with sadness and nostalgia across social media. Many regulars have shared their favourite memories, from legendary parties to quiet moments with friends.
