Venus review
Venus manchester photoThe mainstay glam night out in Manchester, at the intimate Club V, Venus has been the favoured destination by clued-up clubbers for as long as we can remember, and its popularity never seems to wane. Musically you're looking at funky vocal house - Think Hed Kandi et al - in a recently refurbished venue.

The crowd is well dressed and up for dancing, spurred on by the constant battering of 'classic' tunes - even the most leftfield music lovers would start toe tapping in this place!

Venus opens their doors at 10:30pm and shuts them not long after. Arrive early, dress well and you'll get in no problem. If you're going down with a large group of friends then consider splitting up to guarantee entry.

Top club! (when you get in), they are well harsh on letting in. Seems you've got to play a little game every time you go to the door - the bald guy he say no! then ask dave he um's and ar's, ask him again he say yes! then bald bouncer gives you a warning "dont grab the girls!," "its not that kind of place" or something stupid like that - tell me knob head, where is? i'll go there instead. top tunes though so its always worth a try.

Used to go in,my mate started dating a guy whose known as Tony Tee, she finished with him, so he had her barred so watch out for him ladies! And i hope he reads this! and dave, and the doorman! because i bet he didn't tell them the reason she dumped him! but i might! in fact, I might tell EVERYONE !

Venus is an AMAZING club!! Dave the promoter keeps all the riff raff out. (Unlike alot of clubs in Manchester that let all the gangsters in!) People who have left bitter messages on here are talking out of their bottoms. It's well worth queueing up for!!

ur still as big an arse then dave! im suprised you dont melt down there what with all ur surgery!

I've been clubbing for 15 years and this is one of the best clubs I've ever been too. It has a proper happy firndly vibe that lasts till the end. Danced and chatted with loads of sound people. Most clubs have lost the buzz but this place keeps it small, intimate and real.... Delmonte, the man that likes to say 'YES'.

venue is a great club apart from dave who is an asre as are some of the doorstaff. ive been going since 2002 and all of a sudden in the last 12 months the door staff have been saying 'no' and dave supports it. they are turning away genuine people who want a night out and letting in 16 yr olds. venus - have some loyality

Yep. The doorstaff at fast arseholes who profess in depth knowledge on house music. Never go back and put money in the coffers of a place with doorstaff like that. Cunts Plus the aircon needs sortin

I think its not fair that you arn't allowed in this club without a membership, as me, my bf and 2 other couples from Liverpool tried 2 get in last year but they said 'no' which I think was abit harsh seeing as how Garlands r always letting the Mancs into their club! I think that Garlands should start a door policy where if u r a Manc then ur not coming in. As its only fair because its what Venus do to the Scousers.

You have sold this club to me!
What kind of music is played there?

Dave says...

Good once inside, went on a friday with 4 friends. My recommendation don't go in all together as the bouncers just love for an excuse not to let you in. Lucky for us Dave the promoter came out and said we were friendly enough and let us in but the bouncers are just harsh man. Sort that out

about time dj's broke the back of electro, had an awsome night. Venus(bringing the funk back)

Anonymous says...

i take it you can only write nice reviews on here cos mine keep being deleted oh well would have loved to have had the chance to get in club v! think the door staff need to sort it out before they end up with no custom at all dave next time if you don't want us in just tell us on the phone first! if not from manchester you have no chance getting in this club think about it you prob turn alot of good customers away every week

this club is great! the music is good the people are good, staff are friendly exept for one person. dave the promoter he is a horrible person puts the place down in my books. i know its HIS night but is there any need to be so horrible to people, or customers after all venus would be nothing with out them. every time iv seen this dave he has had somehing cocky to say to me or others, so if he does ever read this review, next time someone comes to the door asking a question can you try and be nice or is it just in your blood to rude and horrible.. there is a lot more id like to say 2 you but im not that kind of person like you. ta!

How come you got turned away??

Once inside, V is indeed a top-notch night. The real problem, though is getting in in the first place. There's a real catch 22 issue: if you're a guy on your own then its very difficult to get in without a membership card. However, you can only apply for one once you're in the club??? The other night a guy with a whacking great shiner breezed right in, but I got turned away. Come on, fellas

this place is a top place....apparently, however, turns away lads in shirts and shoes yet lets in 16 year old girls, the door staff need to take a new approach.
Oh and the membership, need one to get it and can only get in with 1....EY?

Venus is the best club in Manchester by far, and the only one id go to! been going about a year now and have never seen any trouble in there e.g. fights!, hence the strict door policy if they don't know your face or like how you look they tend not to let people in. but in my opinion I think that's a good idea because its always a good crowd in there and has a great friendly atmosphere if you don't get in on a sat night my advice is try Friday night then sign up for a membership when you get in. Fridays are just as good and cheaper
