On its very last night, the nightclub ageHa threw a party for the ages.

Thousands of revelers attended the “The Grand Final” event on Jan. 30 at the Studio Coast live music venue in the Shin-Kiba area of east Tokyo. The atmosphere was electric as house music thumped from the speakers and local favorite DJ Emma played for more than nine hours. Everyone in attendance received vials of sand and water from the pool area to take home as mementos. After the party, ageHa and Studio Coast closed for good.
