Premier Nightclub at Borgata Atlantic City Opens Its Doors As MurMur Celebrates 10 Years With Closing Party
Premier Nightclub opens its doors this weekend in Atlantic City as famed MurMur offers shore-goers closing event
The intimate MurMur Nightclub at The Borgata Resort & Spa in Atlantic City, NJ, has closed its doors for good following its final event this past Monday, April 4. Celebrating a decade of dance music, the iconic nightclub, which has been an Atlantic City staple for 10 years, said goodbye with DJ sets from Stoon, Burns, Tay James, and Fashen.
Fashen provided the closing soundtrack at MurMur, which consisted of top 40, meets hip-hop, meets dance. The jam-packed nightclub at the Borgata was filled to the brim for the final installment in its historic “MurMur Monday” series. Remixes of popular favorites heard throughout the course of the evening included: Major Lazer “Lean On,” DJ Khaled “All I Do Is Win,” TLC “No Scrubs,” Soulja Boy “Crank That (Soulja Boy),” Fetty Wap “Trap Queen,” and Steve Aoki & Laidback Luke “Turbulence” feat. Lil Jon, among others.
Nightlife photographer and cast member of Showtime’s 4AM series, Kirill (KirillWasHere.com), was spotted partying in the DJ booth during MurMur’s last event. The club staff (bartenders and bouncers included) sported shirts, which read: “MurMur 2006-2016, The Last Beat.”
The closing of MurMur paves the way for Borgata’s new Premier Nightclub, which opens its doors on Friday, April 8 with a DJ set from Morgan Page. The $14 million project takes the place of the hotel’s Mixx Nightclub, which closed its doors in September 2015 with Fedde Le Grand.
