Tenjune was a nightclub in the Meatpacking District of Manhattan, New York City, on Little West 12th Street. The music played in the club ranges from hip-hop to techno. It opened in August 2006.[1]

The club began receiving media attention in February 2007 due to its celebrity clientele, but it came under public pressure in August 2010. The club allowed the 17-year-old daughter of Eric G. John, the US Ambassador to Thailand, to enter and drink at the club; later that night, the girl died in a fall from the 22nd floor of a Midtown apartment building.[2]
