St. Petersburg is about to get a dazzling new addition to its nightlife scene! In September 2024, Pour Behavior has announced that they’re rebranding their beloved venue, The Saint, into a vibrant new cocktail lounge known as The Ball. This fresh and funky space is set to officially open its doors on November 9, 2024, after a final farewell service for The Saint scheduled for October 20, 2024.
Located at 49 24th Street North, right in the heart of the Grand Central District, The Ball promises to be more than just a simple rebranding. It’s all about transformation! Imagine stepping into an upscale cocktail lounge filled with the shimmering glow of disco lights and pop-art flair. The project is in the talented hands of the award-winning design team, ZaZoo’d, known for their previous work that embraced The Saint’s aesthetics.
Themed around the iconic disco ball—a beloved symbol of LGBTQ+ nightlife—The Ball will feature bold colors, energetic vibes, and a custom-designed disco ball DJ booth that serves as a stunning centerpiece.
What’s a cocktail lounge without a fabulous drink menu? The Ball will offer a curated selection of cocktails that pay tribute to various queer icons, inviting patrons to sip on something special while enjoying the atmosphere. It’s not just about the drinks, either. A selection of small, shareable bites will be available for guests, perfect for those looking to nibble while they mingle.
As if the delicious drinks and tasty bites weren’t enough, guests can look forward to an incredible experience filled with music from live DJs. The vibe? Think Saturday Night Fever! Picture yourself dancing under a ceiling adorned with sparkling disco balls and chandeliers; it’s a space designed to inspire movement, laughter, and connection.
Pour Behavior, the management team behind this exciting update, is dedicated to maintaining a welcoming environment. They have made it clear that they intend to retain all existing staff during this transition and will also be looking to hire additional employees. This commitment will ensure that the friendly faces you’ve come to know at The Saint will still be there to greet you at The Ball.
To make the transition even more meaningful, there may be an auction of select decor and antiques from The Saint. Proceeds from this auction will benefit a local charity, achieving a beautiful balance between honoring the past and looking forward to the future.
Curious about what’s in store? Keep an eye on The Ball’s upcoming adventures by following them on their official social media and website. They’ll share updates about the current drink menu, special events, and everything else to get you excited!
In short, if you’re in St. Petersburg and love to dance, drink, and let your true self shine, The Ball is going to be your new go-to spot. Get ready for fun, laughter, and memories in a welcoming space designed for all to enjoy—because at The Ball, it’s all about meeting, dancing freely, and being yourself!
