Microbrewery and rooftop bar proposed for Cloudland

Plans have been unveiled for a two-storey extension to one of Brisbane’s biggest and best-known watering holes, with a microbrewery and rooftop bar proposed for its glittery central locale.

Plans have been unveiled for a major sky-high extension to a prominent Brisbane nightclub which will send it soaring six storeys into the clouds.

Cloudland has submitted a development application to incorporate a microbrewery and rooftop terrace to its existing premises along Ann Street, Fortitude Valley.

The venue, a four-storey hotel and function facility, has become one of the Valley’s glitziest destinations.

The 814sq m rooftop bar includes a number of additions, including a “microbrewery, bar and covered outdoor area,” the application said.

“As a consequence of the extension, an additional two (2) storeys are proposed, increasing the overall building height to between five (5) and six (6) storeys,” it said.

Cloudland, which opened in 2009, was affectionately named after the famous Cloudland Dance Hall which was located in Bowen Hills.

The former venue was infamously demolished by the Deen Brothers overnight in 1982.
