After 16 years, the time has come for an iconic downtown Scottsdale nightclub complex to face the wrecking ball.
After a “Blackout” party Friday night and a “Last Call” party Saturday night, Axis/Radius is shut down to make way for a new entertainment destination that’s more compatible with nearby, newer venues. The complex is at Indian Plaza across from Maya Day + Nightclub, Shawn Yari’s new beach club.
The new complex will include Bottle Blonde, a craft-beer hall with an expansive outdoor patio, and Livewire, an indoor live-entertainment venue that will accommodate about 1,000 patrons.
