FWD | Forward Day + Nightclub — Restaurant in Cleveland

8/24/23 - I and a group of 7 other friends went here for the DJ Pauly D show. We were right in the front against the stage, it was amazing. The fog machines were going off every 20 or 30 minutes maybe, right in my face but I didn't think anything of it. I didn't drink anything except water while we were there from 9pm until around 11pm. I stepped out of the crowd and went to go stand next to the bar because I thought I was having anxiety (my chest started feeling tight and I couldn't get a good deep breath) after just a couple seconds I lost consciousness, came to on the floor with a bouncer yanking me up by the arm. The first thing I told him was I had ahstma, he said to get out. I said I can't move yet, he pulled me toward the door. My glasses had flew off when I hit the floor, I told him this and again he said I need to go. He never once asked if I need medical attention, didn't offer to help find my glasses, wouldn't let me look for them. He told me to walk, I walked backward and foward just fine, reiterated that I haven't drank or taken anything and that I think the fog machine/dry ice machine triggered an ahstma attack. He again tried to pull me toward the door. Someone in the crowd got my friends' attention and by the time they got to me and found my glasses I was loosing consciousness again. My friend caught me and was able to lower me to the ground. We all got thrown out when I came too. After I got some ice on my body and was able to breathe we walked to entrance and I explained what happened to a different man and he immediately said the cO2 will do that! I told him I didn't want to go back in and risk it but I wanted my friends to be let back in to enjoy the show. He was very polite and actually cared it felt like, he was nice enough to let them in and to not have to wait in line again. This business isn't one I'll return to though. Train your people on how to handle and realize a medical situation. I was an alone woman who lost consciousness, didn't lonehave a phone/wallet or anything on my person, relayed I had a medical condition and you automatically try to shove me out the door? Imagine if he would've gotten me outside (it was a side entrance with no one else out there) and my friends hadn't known where I was, I didn't have phone or ID on me (my friend was carrying it for me), but what if I would've lost consciousness again outside alone... Would it have been better seeing this story on the news? Maybe I would've smacked my head on the concrete in that scenario and never woke up again. Or maybe someone mightve found me and did whatever they wanted.. Train your employees better FWD. Also please point those machines upward instead of directly down into the crowd so this doesn't happen to...

I recently had the pleasure of visiting FWD Day + Nightclub, and let me tell you, it was an absolute blast! From the moment I stepped inside, I knew I was in for a memorable night of fun and excitement.

The ambiance at FWD is electrifying, with its vibrant lights, stylish decor, and a fantastic layout that seamlessly transitions from a chic daytime hangout to a high-energy nightclub as the sun sets. The venue's design creates the perfect setting to enjoy both the day and night scenes.

The music was the heart and soul of the entire experience. The DJs were phenomenal, spinning an incredible mix of tunes that catered to all tastes. Whether you're into EDM, hip-hop, or pop, FWD had something to keep everyone on the dance floor all night long. The sound system was top-notch, creating a powerful and immersive experience that added to the overall enjoyment of the night.

The staff at FWD was exceptional; they were courteous, friendly, and always ready to assist. The bartenders were skilled mixologists who crafted delicious cocktails that perfectly complemented the vibrant atmosphere. The service was quick and efficient, even during the peak hours, which is always a big plus in a crowded club.

One aspect that sets FWD apart from other nightclubs is its outdoor space. The rooftop area provides a refreshing escape from the dance floor, offering breathtaking views of the city skyline. It was a great spot to chill with friends, catch your breath, and snap some Instagram-worthy photos.

Safety and cleanliness were also evident throughout the venue. The management's dedication to maintaining a safe and hygienic environment during these uncertain times is commendable, and it made me feel more at ease while enjoying the night.

Overall, FWD Day + Nightclub is an absolute gem in the nightlife scene. It's a place where you can let loose, dance like nobody's watching, and create unforgettable memories with friends. I can't wait to return and experience the magic all over again. If you're looking for an epic night out, look no...

I purchased VIP meet n Greet tickets to see Pauly D on 7/3. When I approached the line at FWD, I inquired where the line was for VIP meet n Greet. One employee directed me to one line and when that line was approached, I was redirected to the front of building. I entered the building through the front entrance where my friends and I spent over $100 in drinks as we waited for Pauly D to arrive. Approximately 11:30 pm, I realized it seemed odd that my ticket seem to be the same as general admission. I approached a security guard who advised Meet n Greet was hours ago at Magnolia. I asked him who I needed to speak with to assist with this as we were never advised to go to Magnolia and he ignored me. I left the front of the dance floor and proceeded to ask any employee for assistance and continued to be directed to the wrong person. When directed to the owner, he was rude, advised there was nothing he could do and basically dismissed our conversation after spending hundreds of dollars on this event. I left FWD and went to Magnolia as some employees advised to then be advised by the head Security guard that the meet n greet was over. Head Security proceeded to say Pauly D was no longer taking photos. I spent over $200 on ticket sales, another $100 in drinks to not have the service I purchased rendered to me. I can't begin to tell you how disappointed I am for attending this venue for the first time and to be treated as poorly as I was. I have paid for a service that was not rendered and when I attempted to seek assistance was treated like trash. I requested reimbursement that night and was treated poorly by all employees and never directed to who I can speak to to resolve this matter. I am requesting my sale on tickets to be reimbursed to me as I never received...
