REVELLERS can party in style after the opening of Blackburn's first 2am bar.

At a cost of £200,000 and built on the former site of Riding's Insurance, Moist Bar, in Northgate, is the latest addition to the town's growing number of pubs and clubs.

The bar holds 150 people and is open throughout the day before it transforms into one of Blackburn's trendiest night spots.

Owner Simon Makinson (pictured) is looking forward to New Year celebrations.
