Monstar Nightclub Opens in OLD ULTRA Location, Off to a quiet start in Angeles City Pampanga Philippines

People around Walking Street may have seen the posters stuck to the walls and many people handing out flyers advertising a new nightclub in Angeles City Pampanga Philippines.

This weekend it opened for the first time in the hidden spot at the McDonalds end of Walking Street located next to Bar No 9 and Bar Nana in a left alleyway position ... for those who are Angeles regulars its located where ULTRA used to be.

Does this Club have a chance? 

The success of this club really depends on the owners and promoters ability to draw a crowd and create a true identity, we know a mini High Society does not work, Lewis, Prince Charles, Aaron and his team invested but realized their bread and butter remained High Society where people would walk in straight from the street without any issues, the business had been built over a number of years and had a format that worked. When Ultra was opened the choice of management was wrong with many of them just trying to get into girls pants rather than run a decent club resulting in only the ugly and desperate girls drinking in Ultra towards the end of its existence.

If the owners are looking for an example of a Nightclub perfectly designed for Koreans in Angeles city need to look no further than ZYZZX Nightclub located in Ermita/Malate in Manila, the music is K-POP the girls who go there are Filipinos who are wishing they were Korean wearing white make up, contacts lens, some even speaking to their Korean customers (Freelance) in Korean language. The club has 20/30 tables and a dance-floor each table requires a minimum order of 3000 pesos for anyone to even stand/sit at the table but guess what its packed out, the girls know the guys are genuine and willing to spend money (that suits Korean and Japanese style). This club is packed out 6 days out of 7 per week with Koreans making it their partying home in Manila in what is a 100% freelance disco.

One thing that really works is the facility looks great, its slick and actually has decent capacity for 300+ people to have a great night providing the entertainment matches the appetite of Koreans in Angeles City as from where I am standing Skytrax have done everything possible to keep the Koreans spending money there.


What will make it worth visiting? 

Girls, Girls, Girls will be the key to it all... now many will not be so exited about the ULTRA club re-opening, and the Notorious Crew from High Society returning as people can hear their music every night in High Society and they are very good but this club needs to be different. The K-Pop and sexy fashion will be on display and guess what Skytrax on an average night has better looking girls than anywhere in town and they are all there to please their Korean and Japanese Boyfriends/Employers.

Availability of girls is KEY... Why do so many Malaysians go to High Society and Koreans go to Skytrax?? its because the FREELANCE girls are cheaper than going to the bars with the average freelance transaction in those two clubs being 1500 per girl per night in comparison to a bar release which can range from 2000 to 4000 pesos depending on the bar and girl.

Typically Korean style girls don't speak to white guys in Skytrax unless they are 100% single and need the money so don't expect Monstar to be any different unless they remarkably can appeal to a broader range of girls who want to try something different to the two current longstanding clubs in town.

Management is key to this club working but like I mentioned before they need to focus on running a good club and not trying to get girls to go to their homes and hotels, I remember clearly one manager at Ultra was asking girls to go to his place as Euro Asia Hotel throughout the Ultra existence while not being concerned by the lack of customers especially males spending money in the club (some owners would feel a bit let down by this type of management style)


What club will be mostly affected by Monstar opening? 

It really depends, SKYTRAX would be most at risk should they really follow in the ZYZZX style and create a true KOREAN style club with K-POP. High Society would only be affected if Monstar became a really exceptional party venue it would take a big effort but its not impossible.

Will this affect the NEW ABC Nightclub due to open in 2017?

No I don't think so, ABC are looking to make a world class venue like Valkyrie in Manila where the quality of girls is high and the drinks etc can rise from High Society price to prime time New York price depending on your willingness to spend. The one thing we can guarantee with ABC is quality so the cross over between Monstar and this new SUPERCLUB will be minimal.
