Auckland's Showgirls is likely to be out of action for awhile, after a "slow smouldering fire" damaged some 50 percent of the building.

On arrival, firefighters found smoke coming from the first floor.People were inside the building when the fire broke out but everybody left the building safely.

The club, which was in action at the time, was subsequently evacuated.

Mr Lind said structurally the building was still sound but there had been a bit of water damage and smoke damage.

The ceiling had also been pulled down to let the firefighters put out the fire.

Nine trucks, 35 firefighters and two aerial appliances were used to get the fire under control.
