Pryzm is expecting a full house ahead of the iconic Watford venue’s last hurrah.
The town's largest nightclub will permanently shut after its New Year’s Eve closing party following confirmation that it had failed to reach an agreement to stay open with its landlord.
Doors will open from 8pm on the Sunday and tickets will cost £10. The event is billed as the "ultimate immersive nightclub experience" for partygoers to say goodbye.

Venue manager Matt Webster said: “We are down but not out when it comes to putting on a party and will be ending an era in style.
“There will be pyrotechnics, confetti and lasers galore, with fantastic music for all tastes, as we look to make new and relive old memories.
“We’re delighted with the way tickets are selling and fully expect the club to be at capacity.”

Four more events are also lined up for the end of the year. The final ‘Motive Saturdays’ will be held on December 23, ‘Join Us For One Last XMAS’ will be on December 24, and then a two-night ‘Last Chance To Dance Weekender’ on December 29 and 30 will lead into the ‘New Years Eve Closing Party’.
The closure was confirmed on November 24 but had been on the cards since a property listing, specifying the building would be vacant by January 5 next year appeared online in October.
A Pryzm Watford spokesperson said: "In spite of our best efforts, we have been unable to reach an agreement with the landlord on a new lease that would ensure a long and sustainable future for Pryzm Watford.
"Regrettably, this leaves us with no choice but to close the venue, and as such our last operating night will be New Year’s Eve, when we plan to throw a party to remember.
"Closing the premises will be a sad day for our staff, management, and millions of customers who have enjoyed the venue over the years.
"Our focus over the coming weeks is to support our staff through this difficult period.”
