Berlin’s legendary nightlife scene needs no introduction. Whether you’re dancing to house music on a floating terrace or sipping cocktails in a former swimming pool, go behind the velvet rope with our clubber’s guide to Berlin.
House of Weekend
Come for the views and stay for the infectious, upbeat atmosphere and great DJs. Located on the top floors of a block in Alexanderplatz, House of Weekend combines a fairy-lit rooftop garden with panoramic views and a chic studio floor, where you can dance until dawn as DJs spin a mix of house and techno.
Watergate

Without a doubt the most famous club in Berlin, Berghain is a vast temple to hedonism. Located in a former power station, it’s renowned for its exacting entry policy. If you’re lucky enough to make it past the bouncers, get ready to embrace the industrial chic décor and thumping underground electronic beats.
