Facts and practical information

Bar Bodega is a former music venue in Wellington, New Zealand that closed in 2016. Founded in 1991, it originally occupied a house earmarked for demolition by Transit New Zealand to make way for an inner city motorway extension. Due to the continuing short-term nature of the lease, the venue continued to exist with a relatively makeshift appearance until 2001 when the motorway extension was finally started and the venue shifted into new premises on Ghuznee Street, a former Nestlé factory and warehouse. The old location was later purchased by restaurateurs Lorenzo and Leonardo Bresolin in 2014. ()
