FIRST LOOK AT AHM CLUB - CELEBRATING 10 YEARS OF LEBANESE NIGHTLIFE

For the past 10 years, AHM has been a landmark of Lebanese nightlife. The club saw the inception of iconic club nights such as 2ND SUN, Love Night and House Of Pop and became a place where partygoers of different tastes and preferences would gather and create timeless moments around music and art. Having endured a pandemic and a devastating blast, AHM was rebuilt, brick by brick for a celebratory farewell season last summer. This summer, Factory People gear up for a new chapter in the AHM story as they unveil a bigger, more impressive club. 

AHM relaunched on Friday July 12 and Saturday July 13 at Beirut Waterfront which overlooks breathtaking scenery. The entertainment group’s new project promises a summer programming curated to appeal to the city’s most loved sounds as well as its bubbling subcultures.

Built in collaboration with the award winning Carl Gerges Architects, AHM is more than a club, rather a monument in the heart of the Lebanese capital. High-end not only in terms of aesthetics but also functionality, the club is a modular space with Factory People’s signature three-room offering. This time, however, the experience will allow more space for discovery, especially with some of its predecessor’s staples coming back, while others introduced for the first time this season. 2ND SUN, a weekly ritual around techno music, will continue hosting the world’s hottest electronic music talent with the likes of Adriatique, Mathame, Stephan Bodzin and Folamour. Love Night, a tribute to the 80s and its glam with the spirit of today, remains your go-to place for all the cheeky flirters and the sexy disco lovers. House Of Pop gets an uplift and presents a summer spectacle, GLOW, which features live performances by a roster of phenomenal singers and dancers. Last but not least, the club introduces Milkshake, a place for all lovers of afro-house and house remixes and blends. The rest is to be discovered only through the maze that is AHM.
