New strip club in York
Only months after Ziggy’s announced the opening of its lap dancing facilities, a new strip club named Bohemia has opened on Micklegate. The club’s opening has seen a mixed reception, with some welcoming it while others express concerns that the club will be out of place in York and may generate crime. Unlike Ziggy’s, Bohemia is exclusively a “gentlemen’s club”. With £10 admission and £10 per dance, owner Hong Poc predicts his half million-pound venture will be a success, and “revive” the Micklegate economy. Councillor Andrew Waller expressed concerns that the presence of Bohemia, which stands by the ancient entrance to the city, may deter tourists as it is “not the sort of York they’ve come to see.”
