However, there are a few clubs in the world that are truly a cut above the rest. Featuring an eclectic variety of beats, pulsating lights, and lots of hot and sweaty people, it’s no wonder these clubs continue to draw people year after year.

Top 5 Nightclubs in the World
#5 - Zouk (Singapore)
This club was founded in Singapore in 1991. The word “zouk” means party, and that’s exactly what patrons of this establishment go there to do. Zouk is consistently ranked among the best clubs in the world, and is one of the greatest nightclub experiences in its native country. The club plays a variety of dance music, from techno to house and everything in between. In fact, there are four different clubs housed within Zouk to give partygoers a variety of experiences.
#4 - Ministry of Sound (London)
Launched in 1991, London’s Ministry of Sound is devoted to the auditory experience. The club’s sound system was at the forefront of its design, and this has given it an edge over its competitors. Today it features individual rooms like many other clubs, and plays up-and-coming as well as well-known artists. There have since been other Ministry of Sound clubs launched around the world, in addition to a record label of the same name and a number of other branded products.
#3 - Pacha Ibiza (Ibiza)
Found in Ibiza, Spain, Pacha Ibiza opened in 1973. It has since become one of the most popular clubs in a town that is known for its nightlife. Pacha is famous for its house music, but actually features five different rooms that blast a variety of musical styles like R&B and disco. Pacha’s popularity has allowed the club to draw such famed DJs as Calvin Harris and Pete Tong to play. There are many Pacha clubs throughout the world, but Ibiza is consistently ranked as the best.
#2 - Fabric (London)
Fabric is famous for showcasing underground talent as well as legendary DJs. This club opened in London in 1999, and has been blasting dub, electro, house and more ever since. Parts of the club are equipped with a bodysonic floor, which means the music’s bassline makes it vibrate. This allows club-goers to get even more absorbed in the music. Clubbers live the high-life at Fabric, while dancing the night away to an eclectic mix of beats.
#1 - Space (Ibiza)
Also found in Ibiza is Space. This club has won more awards than any other in the world since it opened in 1989. What makes Space so unique is its daytime dancing: the club opens early in the day and allows patrons to dance in the sunlight. The club’s defining feature is its open-air dance floor that allows the sounds of airplanes to break through the booming music. Space also draws international DJs to lead its parties, and remains a unique experience on the island of Ibiza.
