Following discussions between management and neighbours, Quiver Lounge Kilimani has declared that it will not play music on the property “in keeping with the principles of unity and ecosystem conservation.”
According to Quiver, it will be the first club to adopt the avant-garde idea of refraining from music.
This innovative strategy aims to create a lively environment where guests can fully enjoy themselves, free from the interruptions of loud music. The club released a statement saying, “We think that people can still eat, drink, and have fun while participating in meaningful conversations and connecting.”
Quiver stated that eliminating loud music will promote a more sociable environment where conversation, laughter, and glass clinking will take centre stage.
The statement read, “Our committed staff will be available to guarantee that each guest feels at home and engaged, providing a varied menu of delectable food and revitalising drinks to enhance the experience.”
Hours after the Nairobi County Government announced its intention to close Quivers Lounge Kilimani due to noise pollution complaints, the management made the announcement.
Geoffrey Mosiria, Nairobi’s Chief Officer for Environment, said the notice came after purportedly fruitless attempts to allay worries expressed by nearby residents who assert that loud music is frequently played at the facility.
“We sent them multiple notifications to let them know that their loud music is upsetting the neighbourhood. “We are here to announce our planned closure today,” Mosiria stated.
According to Mosiria, the county administration will not let any establishment play loud music that jeopardises the safety of those residing in the vicinity.
The State House, the Department of Defence, and a number of residential buildings are all close to the Quiver Kilimani Lounge.
