'On This Day 1978: Inside Iconic Disco Nightclub Studio 54' On This Day 1978, Norman Rees of ITN visited New York's world-famous disco club, Studio 54, in a desperate attempt to understand its appeal. Opened at the height of the disco era, the club quickly became known for its exclusive entry policy, its A-List guests (such as Pelé, who features in this report), and a particularly lax attitude towards drug use and sexual activity. While it was only open for 9 years, its peak being in the 1977-79 period, today Studio 54 is remembered as a symbol – and a temple – of the age of disco. #OnThisDay #Studio54 #Disco #MusicHistory #1970s 🎥 Subscribe to our YouTube channel (tap the bell icon and stay up to date with all the latest On This Day videos!) - https://www.youtube.com/c/OnThisDayITNP 🎥 Follow us on Twitter - https://twitter.com/OnThisDayITNP 🎥 Like us on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/OnThisDayITNP 🎥 Check out our TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@onthisdayitnp
