Overview
Melbourne, your prayers for an eclectic post-ironic, Hawthorn based club with 24-hour licensing have been answered. Untz Untz (the phonetic sound of dance music and generally jovial shit-facedness) has recently opened on Glenferrie Road and is promising great things for the neverending live music and cheap pizza scene.
Untz Untz is basically a nightclub (or, as they would have you believe, a multi-faceted entertainment venue) and the hot tickets so far are the many and varied theme nights on offer throughout the week. They'll be trading four nights a week: Cheers Tuesdays (the $8 Skittle Bombs are a big hint it's a party for uni students); Animal House on Thursday; Beta Bar Fridays (a cosplay/video game themed night); and a night simply called Adultery on Saturdays (a 21+ club night with a revolving mix of house, techno, disco, hip hop, soul, funk and R&B and nary a raspberry vodka in sight). And did we mention the trippy infinity light-up dance floor? Yeahhhh. We're planning to throw every last shape on that.
While the team is still expanding the empire, keep an eye on their channels as the venue is determined to make live music (featuring local acts) the big drawcard for their nights. And come September, we can expect a two more additions: a pub called Holy Moly, and its counterpart bar called Boozy Soozy, where you can expect $4 pizzas in the style of Bimbo Deluxe and cocktails on tap. Hawthorn just became our new favourite party place.
Untz Untz, 660A Glenferrie Road, Hawthorn; open Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
