The recent Playboy pop-up club, a launch event for NBC’s new series, “The Playboy Club,” was held at Atlanta’s new bar, Vanquish.

The night was pure swank, from the opulent, safari-themed decor, to the A-list socialites — Kenny Burns and a host of Playboy Bunnies among them — the private pop-up club kicked off “The “Playboy Club” countdown with a bang.

Nick F. Nelson, principal and chief marketing officer of the award-winning Liquid Soul Media lifestyle marketing agency, says The Playboy pop-up club launch event offered a brand-new experience based on the golden age of the Playboy Club.

“We’re celebrating the launch of ‘The Playboy Club,’ which airs on NBC on Sept. 19 at 10 p.m. [EST], and we’re doing something that has never been done before — we’re doing pop-up Playboy Clubs in Atlanta and New York,” Nelson tells rolling out.

Atlanta's exotic Vanquish lounge was home of the recent pop-up Playboy Club.

“With the Playboy Club what we’re looking at is not the sensationalized version of the club, but we’re looking at the lifestyle, the music, the fashion, the bunnies. Back in the 1960s, when the Playboy Club opened up in Chicago, it was the place to be where a young man and woman could go and enjoy a cocktail.

“So when you look at ‘The Playboy Club,’ you’re looking at all these various elements and you’ll see all of these elements tonight as we celebrate the show.”

Vanquish bar manager Brandon Nelson adds that the venue also has an old-school elegance about it.

“Some of the other clubs are a crowd-driven experience, Vanquish is a bar-driven experience,” Nelson says of the 3-week-old club. “Vanquish is about high quality cocktails, rare, hard-to-find spirits, and having fresh ingredients at hand.”
