Sometimes beloved businesses fall prey to corporate expansion, like UK nightclub The Sanctuary did when it was razed and turned into an IKEA. But faithful fans don’t forget quickly. In this video, 200 clubbers relived their days at The Sanctuary, blowing whistles, dancing to imaginary music and completely stunning shoppers.
The impromptu IKEA rave lasted just a few minutes--certainly not the all-night bender that regular ravers are accustomed to. After the soiree, it was back to business as usual.
