Arcane Toronto

Toronto nightclub that counted Chair Girl as a customer has permanently closed

Toronto nightclub Arcane has permanently closed.

The King West club was known for its top-of-the line sound system, lighting, and visuals from the same people behind BlueBlood Steakhouse and Cibo Wine Bar.

Found deep down an alleyway, Arcane opened back in 2019 and initially had a good run before being forced to close during the pandemic. 

It got unwanted attention in 2020 for unsanctioned parties on their patio that violated social distancing rules at the time. 

Toronto's notorious Chair Girl, Marcella Zoia, posted about one of them on her Instagram feed. 

Arcane closed earlier this year with little notice.

Opening soon at the same address but different space will be a multi-floor restaurant called Silent H. It's going in where Rabbit! Rabbit! Rabbit! used to be.
