Electric Mushroom—a new bar, restaurant and nightlife venue coming to the Fremont East Entertainment District—has quietly unveiled a distinctive facade featuring a bigass (wait for it) mushroom.<\/p>\n

Let’s just say this ain’t your grandpa’s Fremont Street.<\/p>\n

Electric Mushroom opens July 24, 2025 at 10 p.m. in the former Therapy space.<\/p>\n

Fun fact: Humans have a lot in common with mushrooms. They breathe oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide, just like we do.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Therapy went out in a blaze of glory. For many years, it was a beloved restaurant, but then turned into a shitshow of a nightclub with all the associated problems of drugs and violence, for starters.<\/p>\n

The co-owners of Electric Mushroom, Brad Hogeg and Zak Jordan, are well aware of the reputation of the former venue and are committed to not making the same mistakes all over again.<\/p>\n

That means different music to appeal to a different demographic and ample security, among other changes.<\/p>\n

The interior of Electric Mushroom is largely the same, with a bar, dining area, dance floor and upper deck perfect for private events.<\/p>\n

Letting us snap pics while construction is still happening is one of the top signs a place will be cool.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Electric Mushroom should dovetail nicely into the Fremont Street Entertainment District, already filled with hoppable bars and lounges and places to drink and listen to loud music, all due respect.<\/p>\n

The neighborhood has been shaped largely by Ryan Doherty, who understands the need for cohesion and a reason for people to visit (since there’s only one casino, El Cortez, and no massive digital screen above the street).<\/p>\n

Doherty operates Commonwealth, Park on Fremont, Discopussy, Lucky Day, We All Scream, Cheapshot and La Mona Rosa. It’s a whole thing.<\/p>\n
