The Skybar, high above Caprica City.

The Skybar is a club and bar located atop a high rise building in Caprica City on Caprica, circa 58 BCH (42YR).

The Skybar is the watering hole of Atreus and other members of the off-shoot Ha'la'tha organization that runs guns to Tauron in the years prior to the First Cylon War. As retribution for Atreus killing his partner, Demos, Sam Adama sends a Graystone Industries U-87 Cyber Combat Unit robot to dispatch Atreus and his men (CAP: "False Labor").

  • The Skybar set extension was created by visual effects artist Farrah Welch, who described it as "one of my favorite set extensions I've gotten to work on. I got to model, texture, and light this kitschy, retro bar for an awesome shoot-em-up scene."[production 1] The set extension work was completed in May 2010 during the production of Caprica's only season.[production 2]
