Newport's Fever & Boutique nightclub is to host a farewell party this weekend before closing its doors for good.

The unexpected news was shared via the company's social media yesterday (Sunday).

The venue, which is located on Newport's Coppins Bridge and is part of a national chain of nightclubs, opened its doors in the summer of 2017, but will cease to trade after one big blow-out this weekend.

A spokesperson for Fever said:

"After an incredible 7 years, we are sad to announce we will be closing our doors forever after Saturday (October 5).

"Thanks to all those who made our nights so special.

"We’ve had some incredible times and are sure you’ve made memories for life.

"We will be hosting our final farewell party on Saturday October 5 from 10pm-4am

"Come and join us on Saturday one last time as we go out with a bang."

The Coppins Bridge site was previously run as a Wetherspoon until 2016 and before that was known as 'Chicago Rock'.

The future of the location is now in limbo.

Fever will open for one last time this coming Saturday (October 5) with a farewell party taking place from 10pm until 4am.
