Tiger Tiger, one of London's most iconic clubs, has fallen victim to the city's dwindling nightlife and has permanently closed its doors. The club, located near Piccadilly Circus, has officially confirmed its closure on their website, expressing gratitude for the "years of incredible memories" they have shared with their patrons.
Unfortunately, the club has been operating at a loss for quite some time and is now set to be transformed into a luxury hotel. This news may not come as a shock to some, as a Reddit user by the name of RossKillington, who claims to have been the regular DJ on Saturdays, shared his thoughts on the closure. "It's sad to see another big night club go, but it wasn't entirely unexpected when I heard the news," he wrote.
Despite the decline in London's nightlife, Tiger Tiger was still able to attract lively crowds, as RossKillington mentioned. In fact, he had the opportunity to play the last night at the club just a couple of Saturdays ago, where he ended the evening with the song "Impala" by Gheist. A little trivia for those who were curious about the last song played at Tiger Tiger.
Known for its fun and carefree atmosphere, the club was not known for hosting the most sophisticated of events. In fact, it had previously been fined £120,000 for serving caustic soda instead of salt with their tequila shots, resulting in four women suffering mouth burns. Tiger Tiger was part of a British nightclub chain owned by Novus Leisure.
In other London news, tickets for the New Year's Eve fireworks in 2025 are now available and a central London flat owner is allowing their housemates to choose their own rent. However, amidst these updates, there is also the unfortunate news of a man being shot and killed near a major train station in east London.

Tiger Tiger may no longer be a part of London's nightlife, but it will always hold a special place in the hearts of those who have fond memories of the club. Its flagship branch, which opened in 1998, spanned four floors and featured a restaurant, four dance floors, and five bars. And as one Reddit user put it, they will miss the unique blend of "Rohypnol, Syphilis, and Lynx" that filled the air at Tiger Tiger.
