The Brooklyn Mirage failed to reopen in summer 2025 after extensive renovations. Owner Avant Gardner filed for bankruptcy and submitted a permit to demolish the venue. The Department of Buildings approved demolition, with work scheduled to start February 2 and finish in April or May, and an estimated demolition cost of $1.5 million plus a $1,271.40 filing fee. FIVE Holdings, the Dubai-based parent of Pacha, was expected to pursue a deal to buy Avant Gardner and convert the space into Pacha New York. Unsecured creditors pulled support amid reports that Axar Capital Management brokered a deal with FIVE Holdings. Pacha announced legal issues are settled and plans to open in June 2026.
