The Hacienda

Profile:

Fac 51 Haçienda, better known as The Haçienda, The Hacienda or The Hac, was a nightclub and music venue in Manchester that became famous during the "Madchester" years of the late 1980s and early 1990s, with the club being heavily associated with the rise of acid house and rave music.
The Haçienda opened on 21 May 1982, and despite considerable and persistent financial troubles, survived until 28 June 1997. During much of this time the club was mainly ed by record sales from the band Tony Wilson.
In late 1983, Andrew Berry opened his hair salon "Swing" in the basement (with Factory cat. no. Fac 98), where it operated until the end of the 1980s.
Since closing as a night club, the venue was briefly used as an art gallery before its closure. The venue was demolished in 2002 and new flats built in its place, The Haçienda Apartments.
Employees included Andy Jackson, and resident DJs included Jon Dasilva.
