In Loving Memory of Mark Calcagni

January 3, 1965 – October 3, 2025

It is with profound sorrow and deep shock that we confirm the tragic death of our beloved General Manager, Mark Calcagni. The news has left us shattered, and our hearts go out to Mark’s family, friends, and everyone whose life he touched.

Mark was a cherished figure in San Francisco’s nightlife community. For over a decade, he served as General Manager of the iconic Condor Club, preserving its historic legacy while keeping it vibrant for new generations. He also held leadership roles at Vanity Nightclub, helping shape the Broadway scene with passion and dedication.

One of his proudest accomplishments came in 2022, when the Condor was added to the San Francisco Legacy Business Registry, recognizing its cultural significance. Known for his warmth, leadership, and generosity, Mark was often described as “legendary” by friends and colleagues.

His life was tragically cut short on October 3, 2025, leaving a deep void throughout North Beach and beyond. The Condor Club and the wider community mourn this tremendous loss and are committed to honoring his legacy by upholding the spirit, hospitality, and community he embodied.

Mark will be remembered not only as a manager but as the heartbeat of a community — a man who made everyone feel welcome, valued, and part of something unforgettable.
