Club MOP

Club MOP, styled as Moon on Planet, is a nightclub at Studio City on Estrada do Istmo in Cotai, Macau. It is located at Shop 3100 on Level 3 and occupies the space formerly home to Pacha. The club draws a young adult crowd, mainly in the twenties and thirties, from Macau, Hong Kong, mainland China and the international visitors staying in the Cotai resorts. Dress is typically stylish casual, and sportswear, flip-flops and beachwear risk being turned away; valid photo ID should be carried, since Macau enforces age limits at venues connected to the resorts. The music programme leans toward EDM and hip-hop, with DJs playing through the late hours. The drinks programme is built around spirits, mixers and cocktails, with drinks around MOP 100-200 (approx USD 13-25), and groups can arrange table and bottle service. Cover charges vary by night and depend on the event and promotions, so the current price should be checked before visiting. The venue listing gives hours of 6PM to 6AM, but a nightclub of this type fills late, usually after about 11PM, and the dancefloor is busiest on Friday and Saturday nights and during holiday periods when more visitors are in Macau. Weeknights are calmer and often cheaper, though some nights may have limited programming. Reserving a table is the most dependable way to avoid a queue at busy times, and groups arriving with a booking usually receive easier entry than walk-ins. Studio City is a Cotai resort with its own dining and entertainment, so an evening at Club MOP is easy to combine with dinner in the complex, and taxis and resort shuttles connect to other Cotai properties through the night. Visitors should confirm current opening nights and event details, since club programming and promotions change frequently.
