Add Page Six on Google Pop that bottle! 1OAK is making a comeback.
The celebrity magnet, which was shuttered during COVID-19, reopened at its old West 17th Street location during New York Fashion Week, we hear, and drew Leonardo DiCaprio, Cindy Crawford and daughter Kaia Gerber, Winnie Harlow, Future, Ice Spice, Anwar Hadid and more.
Sources tell Page Six that the venue, run by Richie Akiva and Darren Dzienciol, is expected to be able to open there twelve times in a year.
And there’s chatter that it could reopen permanently at a different venue.
One source tells us that while this could be for more 1OAK pop-ups, it could also mean private events and parties.
At the Fashion Week bash, a source tells us that the place was packed, with mobs outside trying to get in.
The club shuttered during the COVID-19 pandemic and was evicted in 2022 after racking up nearly $1.8 million in back rent, according to court records. (“It was resolved and the funds were ultimately recouped,” a rep for Akiva previously told Page Six.)
Dzienciol told Page Six that this is a “farewell tour.”
A source tells Page Six that Akiva is working on reopening at a permanent spot downtown in February.
Akiva opened 1OAK in 2007 with former business partner Scott Sartiano. The hotspot quickly came to define the bottle-service era, pulling in celebrities like Drake, Jay-Z, Pharrell Williams, Justin Bieber, Lenny Kravitz, Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan.
It was the spot where Yankees Alex Rodriguez and Derek Jeter celebrated their 2009 World Series victory, and where Matt Harvey infamously partied so hard that he failed to show up the next day to play in a Mets game in 2017.
