The democratic dance club “Forsage” has long become a central point on the dance map of Ukraine. Year by year lots of DJs and club visitors rate it as the best club in Kiev. And there is a number of reasons for it. From the very first days of its existence “Forsage” has gained its reputation rapidly and rather quickly became the favorite place of many clubbing people. One of the main club trumps is its three dance floors propagandizing completely different music formats thereby satisfying the tastes of both experienced clubbers and visitors with orthodox music preferences…
The “Heaven” club is positioned as a conceptually new nightclub propagandizing the so-called «cocktail» lifestyle. The venue is estimated for the limited number of “right” people thus it’s not very spacious. The number of the “right” people is strictly controlled by the face-control at the club entrance which is convinced that only the best representatives of society can get to the “Heaven”. Once you enter the club it becomes obvious that really big money have been invested into the venue. The interior is deceptively and expressly simple: white walls and laconic furniture from Philippe Starck serves just as a background for the expensive light equipment…

Over quite a short period of time the “Prime” club has become an integral part of the night life of Kiev. The club was meant to correspond to its name meeting the highest demands and being first-class. Whether it’s so, judge for yourself. Over some time, “Prime” has changed its management crew which affected its policy in a positive way. Located on the Nauki Avenue the club is regarded as a student venue: basically, the party crowd is made up by 15 years-olds and older clubbers. The territory of the club is not that big that makes it cozier in comparison with the other major clubs in the capital…
It’s been already more than 5 years that the «Saxon» night club is unfurling its flag high above the rest. Over this time many clubs has appeared on the map of Kiev and has vanished from it ingloriously and forever. But it’s not what goes with the “Saxon” that continues to disturb minds of the local clubbers giving the best acts in the capital. Conservative medieval Saxon style of the club makes some kind of unrealistic impression you are either in a museum or in some King’s castle. Lounge area is amphitheater-shaped that allows watching what’s happening on the dance floor. It’s quite easy here to rave all night long as “Saxon”’s residents and guest DJs are known for fantastic sets they give…

The club “Joss” was launched in 1993. Since then it remains the main entertainment centre on the left bank of the Ukrainian capital with a convenient location having the hotel “Tourist” by side and situating only 10 minutes from the international airport Boryspil.
