The legendary Sandton club was started by the late nightlife mogul, Chris Coutroulis, whose passing in 2021 sent shockwaves across social circles and saw an outpouring of late-night memories from celebrities and patrons alike – those who had enjoyed frequenting Taboo on a regular basis.
Taboo was well loved and well known as being Sandton’s number 1 night-time entertainment venue and became synonymous with big celebrities, world-class DJ’s as well as class, style and luxury. Taboo catered to an elite clientele, both local and international, providing them with entertainment of the highest caliber, complimented by lavish and decadent interiors, multiple dance-floors, and bottle service with all the bells and sparklers.
Chris Coutroulis gave us 19 years of the ultimate clubbing experience and we pay tribute to him for this. We all have so many fond memories of the nights behind these doors.

Whilst his might be the end of a chapter for the club known as Taboo, the new management looks to the future. The team behind the Taboo Group are confident that patrons can look forward to seeing a new exciting and world-class club experience opening early next year.
