If you haven't heard, Playground Bar & Lounge is on the verge of a major remodel, which means the popular downtown spot (as well as Hub next door) will be closed for a few months starting next week. 

In honor of its summer rework, the club will be hosting one last blow-out party this Saturday night with no cover, Santa Pachita on the roof, drink specials and door prizes.
