The Toucan Club has moved out of its St Mary Street premises because a developer is converting the upper floor of the building into flats (yeah, like Cardiff really needs more luxury flats). Apparently they hope to reopen soon once they find another venue, and they'll be running one-off nights in other venues in the meantime.
In its previous location - which is now Callaghan's - the Toucan was where salsa started in Cardiff (before my time). The St Mary Street venue was one of the few civilised places to see good music in the City Centre. They haven't done a lot of Latin gigs recently but it's still a shame to lose a good venue.
