Immobilien Tipp für Stones Fans:
The El Mocambo is close to being sold, and its days are probably numbered
The owners of the El Mocambo are planning the music hall’s farewell show. A buyer has made a conditional offer on the legendary club, and if the deal goes ahead, it could bring an end to more than a century of live music at 464 Spadina Avenue.
“There’s an offer in, it looks pretty good, but it’s not finalized,” says Sam Grosso, co-owner of the club. “In commercial sales something could happen at the 11th hour and it could just not be sold.”
The music hall, which became synonymous with rock, punk, and new wave music in the 1960s, 70s, and 80s, and which at times hosted performances by the Rolling Stones, Billy Idol, The Ramones and Blondie, has been on the market since March for close to $3.95 million. Its sale price, at this point, is unclear.
