UNIQ

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article is about the nightclub. For other uses, see Uniq (disambiguation).

UNIQ is a nightclub in the centre of Helsinki, Finland, near the main building of the Helsinki University.

It is situated in the basement floor (one floor underground) of an office building housing a university research centre and an independent journalism studio.

The club's most noted feature is its "arctic ice bar", a separate room that is constantly kept at a temperature of about -5°C (about 23°F) and has its own bar, which, like all the other furnishings, is made of blocks of ice shipped from Lapland.

The drinks at UNIQ are priced according to a "drink stock market", which updates the drink prices by increments of about 10 Euro cents every few minutes depending on their popularity. Popular drinks become more expensive, while unpopular drinks become cheaper.
