Dux Central is a R18 venue.
Dedicated to Dux de Lux
Dux De Lux was a significant landmark in our nations hospitality and live music history, which unfortunately all came crashing down with the 2011 Christchurch earthquake. After tirelessly searching for that perfect space for the soon to be Dux of beers and live music, Dux Central was established in 2015 and quickly became Christchurch’s favourite local. Being spoilt for choice with four unique spaces, along with its gastropub menu and impressive selection of brews (boasting over 200!), it is certainly the closest replication of our OG Dux De Lux
