Squires Nightclub, 33 Shipquay Street, Derry.
Squires is now firmly established as a major player on the night-club world stage. The internationally recognised UK-based magazine "Disco Mirror" recently featured a two page spread on the club. Complimenting the innovation of the management in promoting the dance scene the magazine was impressed not only by Squires but with all the outlets of the Garvan O'Doherty Group which were seen to be a superior standard to most found in the UK or throughout Europe. Not content to rest on its laurels, squires has continued to forge ahead and the previously announced VIP room, which lies between The Townsman and Squires, has opened to offer yet another atmosphere within the complex. Centrally located, it is the ideal venue to launch the serious party animal into the effervescence of the main disco area or indeed to retreat from there if an atmospheric overload looks imminent. With the Maiden Heaven series still pulling the crowds and packing the pews, the end of November will see the return of the popular Squires Monday Night, just in time to ramp up the entertainment scene before the Christmas festivities. Squires is popular with young people and students.
