Advantages: Cheap entry prices, good music

Disadvantages: Chill out room rarely open

Voodoo is a fairly large club located very near the centre of Newport and is located very near to the main pub/club part of Newport so it's easy to reach. For pre-club bars I would recommend La Bamba's which is a small Mexican restaurant and cocktail bar located just up the high street oposite Mc Donalds. Another good bar is John Henries, but the doormen here can be a bit scary at times.
Once you reach Voodoo you have to walk up a few sets of stairs to get into the club where you reach the reception and have to pay. Entry prices are usually very reasonable and it's only a few pound to get in. Walk through a set of doors now and you're into the club.
There is one main room with a seperate chill out room with a bar hidden away, but the chill out room is hardly ever open. On entry you will be greated by the large dancefloor, which usually starts to fill up at about 10 on 'Essential' nights. Around the edge are several rows of seats all covered in elaborate coverings.
The music is different every Essential night and it ranges from Pop to Hard House. The DJ is average, but can be reeeally annoying when he speaks over the music, right in the middle of songs. grrrr.
The 'Essential Nights' are one night I would definetly recommend trying, and it makes a change from going to Zanzibar.
