After over a decade in Dublin's RíRá, Strictly Handbag - Dublin's longest running (established 1994) and most loved club night - have finally decided to bring a whole new generation onto the dance floor with a brand new, shiny and uber-chic venue!
 
Their new Monday night home, and Handbag HQ, is SPY on South William Street.  Once a hangout for the city's ruling classes and their new moneyed minions, SPY has recently been stormed by the kids; glamorously deconstructed to make it the city's most exiting and unpredictable club space.
 
It now feels like a stately home invaded by students and party animals, who after throwing the furniture out the windows, set up the decks, and got down to some good old fashioned pre-boom partying.  In short, it's the perfect home for Strictly Handbag's unique brand of Monday night mayhem!
 
The action takes place over three levels and four areas with four bars, with a variety of cozy corners for communing and knoodeling:
 
Room One

Sweaty dance-floor madness mixing tunes from and inspired by the 80s with contemporary indie electro classics courtesy of  resident DJs Eamonn Barret, Mark Kelly and Rory Montane. 
 
Room Two - The B side Bar

Phantoms 105.2 FM's Sinead Ni Mhordha curates with guest DJs playing tracks from the dark side of the disk. Expect everything from psych-garage to electro-clash & maybe even a splash of fizzy pop.
 
Room Three

For lounging, laughing and shaking off the dance-floor sweat.

 

For quick dance floor access or exit!
 
And watch this space for some very special guest appearances at the Handbag's  upcoming 14th birthday weekender over the October Bank Holiday Weekend. Recent Handbag guest included Mr. Kevin Rowland from Dexy's Midnight Runners, Will Sergeant from Echo & the Bunnymen and The Karminski Experience.
