Thanks to everyone who has been getting in touch following the incident on Elephant Road just now. We're not entirely sure what has happened but Corsica and the team are all safe, hope our neighbours are too.
Following yesterday's incident we're pleased to let everyone know that Corsica is totally safe - albeit a bit smoky - and that we are opening tonight from 4pm as planned for music, beers, pizza and FOOTBALL! Thanks for everyone's support - let's do this!

Unfortunately our neighbours, Distriandina, and many other businesses in the shopping centre face much greater challenges and we sympathise with their position. It could so easily have been us being displaced by the development but it looks like we've been lucky - for now...
Coming to Corsica tonight + this weekend: bring proof of a negative PCR or Lateral Flow test with you to show door staff. No guarantee that tests will be available at the venue so test yourself before arriving. No negative test result = no entry.
