Review Summary

Taken together, reviews describe Complexe Sky as a once vibrant LGBTQ nightlife hub with three floors, three atmospheres, a rooftop terrace, DJs, themed nights and drag performances, but now many say only one room is open, hours are reduced to weekends, and the energy is low with poor sound and sparse crowds and a cover charge. Nostalgia is strong and the space is seen as large and well located with potential to reclaim its former grandeur if programming, hospitality and inclusivity are revived. Some nights receive praise for music, ambiance and service, while others report dead dance floors even late at night and say they would not return. The rooftop patio has been closed since the pandemic and there is longing for the sangrias and for Sky to reinvent itself to attract crowds again.View restaurant profile
