Authorities in the northern city of Tangier have uncovered violations by several nightclubs along the city’s famed Corniche as part of ongoing efforts to rehabilitate the waterfront in preparation for major upcoming events, local sources told Hespress AR.
According to the same sources, Tangier-Tetouan-Al Hoceima Governor Younes Tazi conducted an on-site inspection and noted multiple breaches of the terms outlined in the operating agreements signed by the nightclub owners. Tazi reportedly stressed the need for all operators to comply with the agreed specifications.
The 13 active nightclubs on the Corniche were ordered to standardize their storefronts based on a model facade that received the governor’s approval. The move aims to enhance the visual appeal of the area, according to sources familiar with the matter.
Authorities also announced they will implement strict technical oversight to monitor renovations, warning nightclub operators against carrying out unauthorized modifications inside their establishments.
Some operators are reportedly considering temporary closures under the pretext of conducting renovations, though no such directive has been issued by the authorities. Officials fear this may be a tactic to introduce unapproved changes under the radar.
The crackdown is part of broader urban development projects to prepare Tangier for hosting international and national events in the near future.
