NV Nightclub

We paid quite a bit to see the show in a tiny little room. The bar was fine but there was no where to sit. They only had VIP tables that were WAY out of our price range. Typical rock/​metal venue.

When this first place opened several years ago it was «the» place to be in Knoxville. The location is perfect, right in the old city next to that massive gravel parking lot (with the late night hot dog stands, y’all know what I’m talkin about.) The bartenders were great, the crowd was classy, and the music was really unique– new DJ’s with lots of awesome mashups and dubstep remixes.
As time went on, it slid downhill. Slowly, the crowd got trashier, the drinks weaker, and the music more mainstream. It kind of lost its edge, in my opinion. This place could have the monopoly on being the best club in Knoxville, but they let it slide. It’s a shame too because the location is perfect. I used to go here all the time when I was a student at UT too, back when it was Blue Cats.
I have to call out the reviewer who said «They really roll out the red carpet for their VIPS». Is that sarcasm? True story y’all– when we booked VIP for my girlfriend’s birthday, we showed up and there were 2 bottles of ANDRE on the table. Not that I’m expecting Cristal but if you are paying for VIP you deserve something a little better than that. Whatever, we popped bottles and had a great time but that is just an example of how they let the finer things go here.
I’m holding out hope because like I said, this place was glorious and the location can’t be beat.

Came here on a Saturday night since I am fairly new to the city. This place was dirty with pretty bad music. I will not be returning.

This place used to be fun until all the tweakers took over. It’s just kinda trashy there now. I’ve not been here in months because of it.

Want to have a great kicking time? If you’re into r&b and top 40 this is your place to be. Highly recommend the VIP service. they really put out the red carpet for their VIPs.

Typical dance club atmosphere, nothing out of the ordinary. Not my scene but others do seem to enjoy it.

Going here made me feel like I was back home in Chicago. At first my husband and I thought this club was an outdoor only club but as you go into the courtyard there’s doors to go into the club. Very nice touch. Just like the other reviewer said, NV has that industrial feel. It’s a little more «classier» than the other club we went to. I like the place but not the music. The music selection in Knoxville bars and clubs are top 40’s remixed here and there. I’d definitely come back though. Oh, best part that I almost forgot to mention… we were at South Bound for the first part of the night then decided to walk around the block to NV and since we had our hands stamped we didn’t have to pay another door cover. I guess they’re both owned by Carleo Entertainment. So yayyy to paying $ 5 cover to go into 2 clubs!

Lot’s of VIP areas.
Non-​smoking inside – woohoo!
Special section for «Bottle Service» customers that sits above the dance floor and looks down upon the entire club.
Inside: This place has a bit of an industrial feel to it.
It’s a cool feeling. Not warm.
It’s sleek. Not cozy.
There’s a beautiful & large outdoor patio/​courtyard as you enter where you can sit and have drinks before meandering inside to dance the night away.
This is my first choice amongst nightclubs in the Knoxville area.
It’s most similar to a club you’d find in the Northeast (somewhere in NYC) or Los Angeles.
Not as «shi-​shi» or «posh,» but then again, who wants to be surrounded by snobs in cocktail dresses anyway?
