Diva's Nightclub
From UMassWiki
Diva's Nightclub is a club located on Route 5 in Northampton, by the entrance to I-91 (at exit 18). It claims to be the home of Western Mass's GLBT and Goth scenes. It is open Tuesday through Saturday nights. Due to a good relationship with the town of Northampton, Diva's has last call at 1:45am and closes at 2am. However, no one may enter after 1am.

[edit] Facilities
Diva's has three bars, one of which is off-limits to under-21 year olds. Both bars have approximately the same drinks available. The third bar is to the left of the entrance, and has different DJs/music from the main room. The club is known, in addition to its variety of dance nights, for $1 pints of Pabst Blue Ribbon, making it one of the cheapest bars around (other drinks are comparatively priced).
