The Crowbar , a punk and heavy metal venue, is taking over the space and aims to reopen it under the new name in November.This morning, heavy metal venue The Crowbar announced it would take over The Zoo with a view to reopening in mid to late November.
"It's an opportunity we couldn't pass by, and hopefully we can do some amazing work with Australian and international artists."Ms Dombroski said COVID-19 was the final blow for many venues that were already struggling to make a profit due to the rising cost of alcohol. After 32 years, the Brisbane live music institution is set to close, due to increased operating costs and changes in audience spending.
Ms Dombroski hoped to open the venue in mid to late November, depending on how smoothly the renovations go.The Crowbar co-founder Nathan Trad used to play at The Zoo as a band member, and was involved with the venue as a booker, promoter, and punter."The Zoo has been an institution in Brisbane for over three decades," he said.
