I obviously preferred guv but had some good times at CiRCA. Not a whole but still good times none the less.
Circa was a big shopping mall that played music.
If the dancefloor was bigger, it would be a decent place. But way its layed out, the sound system didnt sound that great and the dance floor was way too tiny compared to all the open/empty spaces on 2nd n 3rd floor.
not enough people in toronto go out to clubs anymore. Bars and restaurants are the new norm. Perhaps because people can go in and out easily to smoke?

The majority of club goers in Toronto stick to the entertainment district where there is a plethora of clubs that play what the majority wants, top 40. |

Guv has been so long in the scene due to it's fearless ownership for business men taking a chance that trully paied off. It'll be always nicer to have more mega club's because we all need variety. |

| Originally posted by bluE_Neon From my observation, Toronto has never been more occupied on the weekends. There's youngster's everywhere and summer time the downtown core is absolutely packed. I don't know about smoking, most clubs do have designated smoking section's however since the bill has been passed there has been a decrease from some phines. |

I wish there was another superclub to go to other than guv. My friends are all sick of Guv, so no matter what DJ comes there, its will take a lot of convincing or most of the time, failure to go out with any of them.
And things will not change as we get older. Personally I can stand Guv unti I've had enough of the scene, but all my friends are pretty much done there. Lawler Canada Day and one other event that thats pretty much it for a year. If big Djs ever played at other venues, I'd totally be down. Cobra is probably the next best thing to a big DJ club I can attend on a regular basis.

| Originally posted by geroin it wasn't really a war.. imo both clubs just failed in how they operated (boa, circa). The sad irony is that both places were resurrected twice and still failed. I'm not saying the bookings were bad, both clubs had some amazing dj's & talent play over the years and i loved boa/sonic but the formulas of how both places operated must have been incorrect if they both closed down. Toronto is a very difficult market to succeed in, you have to really know what you are doing before you attempt to step into Guv's territory. |

| Originally posted by c-mal Circa was like a shopping mall converted into an adult candystore of a club. Whatever the hell that means... Either way, I won't miss it if it tanks. |
OMG!!!!! Where's that thread where we all made bets on how long it would take to get to bankeruptcy??????????????

| Originally posted by VDub The fact that the escalator was even in that club was part of the reason it failed... It was not a practical nightclub space!!! I've been saying that ever since I set foot in Lucid... |

| Originally posted by VDub Very good analogy... Shaya... I was just talking about "giving free head" for Guv... |
Bankruptcy Protection doesnt nec mean that the club is closed. They could restructure and come out of protection.
Unless its been reported otherwise, this isnt quite the end of circa although it is bad news for them
I've been there twice and I really enjoyed myself. I actually liked the layout and found it interesting how it was layered. Like Guv, it seemed like you had many small clubs under one roof. I think it would enhance the experience if they improved the lighting on the main dancefloor.

| Originally posted by FunkyCrew yeah dancing on 2nd and 3rd floor was always fun - you had a clear view of the DJ and tons of space to roam around in washrooms are nice as well and of course the sound system is pretty decent |
