The Hacienda nightclub

9 min • 24 maj 2012

In 1982, the legendary Hacienda nightclub opened in Manchester.

Over the next 15 years, the club hosted some famous concerts and spearheaded the Acid House dance craze.

But Hacienda lost its owners millions of pounds and had to close in 1997.

Witness speaks to Hacienda DJ Dave Haslam and one of the club's owners, Peter Hook of New Order.
