Pacha New York to Launch in Former Brooklyn Mirage Space

The New York venue is set to open on June 20

Pacha New York, an arm of the Ibiza-born nightclub brand, is set to open on the site previously occupied by the Brooklyn Mirage.

Backstory:

  • Fresh off a $30 million renovation, the Brooklyn Mirage was unable to open in 2025 due to failed safety inspections, resulting in canceled shows.

  • Its parent company, Avant Gardner, declared bankruptcy, and filed for demolition of the venue in October 2025.

New life:

  • In February it was announced the Pacha brand, which is backed by Dubai-based parent company FIVE Holdings, would take over the venue.

  • As per Pitchfork it’s scheduled to open on June 20 with British DJ Michael Bibi, and South African producer Black Coffee playing on June 21.

  • Billboard states that Pacha has emailed approximately 30,000 Mirage ticket holders who hadn’t received refunds for the canceled 2025 shows, offering vouchers for the upcoming season.

Race to open:

  • Pitchfork estimates demolition of the Mirage will be completed by May, meaning it will be a quick turnaround for the June 20 opening.
