Top 10 Best Clubs in New York, NY [2024 GUIDE]
Best of New York
Marquee NY
In January 2013, Marquee New York, the legendary Chelsea nightclub that defined a generation of New York nightlife, reopened as an internationally acclaimed dance music destination, attracting the most in-demand DJs and live acts. Marquee has transformed into a tripped out warehouse with 28 ft. ceilings, industrial design accents, and new features including chandeliers constructed from functioning microphones, a top-tier Funktion-One Soundsystem, a custom-built DJ booth, and floor-to-ceiling LED walls. By hosting an eclectic array of world-class artists, the mega-club is seen as a tastemaker that fuses strongly impassioned and knowledgeable music fans with VIPs in a remarkable environment unique to the venue. Previously opening its doors to underground luminaries such as Dubfire and Nic Fanciulli, and the leading-edge Progressive House and Trance maestros like David Guetta, Tiesto, and Gareth Emery, it will only continue to feature a refined balance of the most premier acts. Marquee New York is truly a revolutionary establishment that is certainly in a vanguard of it’s own.

Tao Downtown
Tucked away within the grandeur of Tao Downtown’s restaurant is a hidden gem and “in the know” oasis called Tao Downtown Nightclub. Separate from the restaurant, the 2500 sq foot drinks-only lounge has kept a low-key profile attracting VIPS and celebrities for late night/wee-hour cocktails, music and dancing. A lot of people don’t even know there’s a nightclub, as it is tucked away in the corner of the huge Tao complex, away from the dining area. The club is located one stair down and it’s so intimate and dark, it almost feels like a speak-easy. Tao Downtown Nightclub is one of the Meatpacking hotspots these days for those in the know, and it can be tricky to get in on weekends. It is important to note that dining at the restaurant does not guarantee entry into the club.

PHD Downtown
OR those who have spent years absorbing life lessons from “Entourage,” PH-D is Xanadu: a glittering room of celebrities, beautiful women and cresting credit-card bills. The nightclub, which opened in June on the roof of the Dream Downtown hotel, is the latest endeavor from the impresarios behind Marquee, Tao and other successful playgrounds for the well heeled. One recent evening, patrons looking for a soupy breather packed the terrace, a walkway flanked by black couches and groomed shrubbery. Bottles of Champagne and vodka cooled in tabletop ice basins. A man wearing a blue-check dress shirt and white trousers captivated pals with a joke from the trading floor. The kicker: “I’m on margin right now and can’t call you back!” Nearby tenement apartments seemed several universes removed. At the southern edge of Chelsea, PH-D sits atop Vikram Chatwal’s 316-room hotel, which also houses a poolside beach club and a steakhouse. While other lounges cultivate the timeworn comfort of a great-aunt’s living room, PH-D is a fine-cut diamond of glass and polished surfaces. Triple-tiered chandeliers with hundreds of glass rods hang above marble tables and leather seats. Midtown twinkles in the expansive view. THE CROWD A testament to the timeless compatibility of wealth and attractiveness, PH-D is a crush of men in business-casual attire and women who rarely spend weekdays in an office. Like tipsy flamingos, models teeter around the room and dance on couches. At a recent installment of the popular Tuesday night party, a few craned over Wilmer Valderrama, an actor from “That ’70s Show,” who shared bottles of vodka with cronies and rapped along with Jay-Z records. Later that week, Edward Norton and Woody Harrelson stopped in, perhaps reminiscing about “The People vs. Larry Flynt.” GETTING IN PH-D is no shoebox (capacity: 400) but table reservations, IMDb profiles and tear sheets from Céline help to lubricate an elevator ride upstairs. Everyone else is left to the mercy of the doorman after 9:30 p.m. DRINKS The emphasis is on table service, but more-frugal customers can lurk at the bar. Thriftiness is relative: specialty cocktails are $18, and with tax and tip automatically added to the bill, a Jameson on the rocks surpasses $21.

The DL
The DL is one of the friendliest, least pretentious, and high-energy nightclubs not just in the Lower East Side, but across all of New York City. This bass-rattling multi-level venue is fully equipped with an outdoor rooftop wood deck patio with retractable roof where the main dance floor congregates around a DJ spinning popular open format tunes. Down below, the second level of the DL is a darker, grimier no-frills hip-hop sweatbox that has become the calling card for LES nightspots over the years; the entrance level first floor is an inviting bar/lounge with modern tunes playing in the background. Views of the New York City skyline, strong drinks, great music, and a younger crowd full of college students - mostly from NYU, Hunter, Baruch, & the Manhattan fashion schools - early twentysomething Tri-State area professionals looking to blow off steam, and visiting tourists gone wild make the DL a must-visit option for weekend fun.

PHD Midtown
“Offices, offices, offices,” said Matt Strauss, the managing partner of PHD Terrace in Midtown. “Tourists, tourists, tourists.” He was waving toward the kaleidoscopic lights and humanity glob of nearby Times Square, visible from the two-floor lounge that opened in early October atop the Dream Midtown hotel. “But we’re infusing it with our brand of downtown cool,” he said. “Brand” is the right word. The Tao Group’s mastery of the models-and-bottles equation has built powerhouse night-life franchises like Tao, Lavo and Marquee; this is the second PHD (the original is above the Dream Downtown in Chelsea). In a neighborhood with dreary drinking options, even a cut-and-paste hot spot for happy hour is a useful addition. THE PLACE PHD is on the 15th and 16th floors of the Dream Hotel, on an unremarkable Midtown block with an Amalgamated Bank and Starbucks. The rooftop is enclosed during the winter, but plants are abundant, vines snake along the wall behind the bar and benches have plaid picnic-style pillows. Downstairs is a clubby rectangle, all dark hues and reflective metal and glass; it’s like being inside a humming kitchen appliance. THE CROWD Catering to an older after-work contingency means an earlier party. On a recent weeknight, the herd thinned by midnight, though fedoras, leather jackets, man buns and black bodycon dresses remained at tables stocked by promoters. “There’s a lot of young professional guys and girls,” a 35-year old man in a gray suit said. “You can’t tell me there’s not a market in Midtown.” He came with co-workers from the financial technology sector, but he was the last one remaining. “I’m a degenerate, so I’m still here,” he said. PLAYLIST Tunes wafting across the rooftop are deep house and chill. Downstairs, the D.J. played Drake songs, Future songs and songs featuring both Drake and Future. GETTING IN A doorman in the lobby guards the elevator and functions more as a traffic cop than a velvet rope. Table reservations are available. DRINKS Amstel Light is $8. Cocktails like the Hot to Trot (tequila, cucumber, agave, jalapeño) are $16. Food is served until late; buttermilk fried chicken waffle tacos ($12) sound like food blog schizophasia.

Hotel Chantelle
Not actually a hotel, Ravi Patel’s LES spot is named after a French World War II safe house. Hotel Chantelle is retro in design as unmarked doors transport you into Patel’s version of 1940’s Paris. The room exudes warmth as dark mahogany wood panels blend with the black leather pin tucked banquettes under the glow of flickering exposed bulbs, candles, and a gold floral pattern that bounces off dark wallpaper. Cozy up in the banquettes or sit at the bar, where friendly bartenders are happy to explain the cocktail list, which features modern twists on old-school classics. They’ll lead you towards three concoctions: The Pineapple Express (jalapeño-infused tequila, pineapple, and pomegranate), Libertine (gin, cucumber, lime juice), and the Kir Yvette (sparkling rosé, lemon juice). Mix up your night with the attached rooftop restaurant or underground dance club SGTs.

Nebula
Nebula will be Manhattan’s largest nightclub and event venue when it opens this fall. On Friday, the sprawling 11,000 square foot, multi-level club at 135 W. 41st Street will open, marking a major milestone in New York nightlife’s post-pandemic recovery by unveiling a world-class nightclub and event space in the heart of Times Square. Nebula, which is expected to become one of Manhattan’s most popular nightlife and events venues, has announced the dates for its Halloween opening weekend. The three-day opening of Nebula will be the biggest in Manhattan in years, introducing a world-class nightclub in the heart of the city and marking a watershed moment in Manhattan’s and New York‘s post-pandemic nightlife recovery. Nebula will host world-class DJs spanning the electronic music spectrum, from underground trailblazers to stadium-filling superstars, establishing Manhattan as a nightlife and dance culture hotspot. Starting with GORDO, producer/DJ Carnage’s house music alias and Purple Disco Machine‘s unrivaled mix of disco, nu-disco, funk, soul, and house, the festival’s opening weekend is a statement of intent. Malaa, a masked Frenchman and frequent DJ Snake collaborator, will perform the following weekend, as will Grammy-nominated house and techno sensations CamelPhat. Tickets are now available here. Nebula, a three-tiered 11,000-square-foot space with a 5500-square-foot main dance floor, 2,500-square-foot mezzanine, and 3,000-square-foot lower level that can accommodate 700 guests, has spared no expense or detail. Nebula is named after a cloud of dust in outer space that can be seen in the night sky, and the club’s visionary design transports guests into otherworldly immersive environments every week. Nebula is a transformative nightlife experience that combines cutting-edge technology and world-class hospitality with the love and care philosophy that embodied famous Manhattan venues of the past, which transformed for their patrons week after week. The incredible, movable ceiling at Nebula allows the club and event space to transform every time the doors open. The ceiling is made up of six massive video panels that can move and tilt independently or combine to form a massive, venue-spanning screen, allowing patrons to dance under anything from a cosmic night sky to hypnotic, rhythmic pulsing lights. This technology is unlike anything guests have ever seen, allowing the venue to transform from a soaring cathedral-like space to a low-ceilinged dance club every night, ensuring a captivating and unique visual experience and set-up. Richie Romero, a former partner at Butter Group, the force behind 1OAK and Up&Down, and Yang Gao, co-founder of MIXX Lifestyle Group, came up with the idea for Nebula. Rob Toma, the founder of TCE Presents and one of the most well-known figures in New York’s electronic music scene, is curating the musical programming. Erica Maurer, co-founder of EMRG Media, which produces hundreds of events each year, will be in charge of special events.

Avant Gardner (Brooklyn Mirage)
Brooklyn Mirage is the outdoor oasis in the Avant Gardner complex, situated in the heart of East Williamsburg. It's open during the summer season each year, and decked out with thousands of plants and even palm trees, and boasting a KV2 Audio system, it's designed to be a sensory experience for both the ears and eyes. It is the outdoor component of Avant Gardner, an 80,000-square-foot development at 140 Stewart Avenue in an industrial corridor of the East Williamsburg neighborhood, a few grubby blocks from Queens. By fall, a warehouse (now filled with sacks of cement mix and construction equipment) will be transformed into an event space. Another area will become a 5,000-square-foot club. All told, it will hold 6,000 visitors.

Somewhere Nowhere (Night)
A new rooftop lounge, nightclub and rooftop pool opening July 1 promises to deliver a full-sensory experience that'll transport you to a fairytale-like garden. Somewhere Nowhere is nestled on the 38th and 39th floors at the top of Chelsea's Renaissance Hotel and has a lush arched entry that leads guests through a dreamlike passageway where they are met with custom art pieces of gnomes and fireflies, neon signs and lantern sconces from another time. The gnomes are part of Sam Tufnell's collection he crafted from translucent resin and tinted with brightly colored pigment, humorously creating a glorified lawn ornament. Each one, which is unique, is installed on a lighted platform to glow in the darkness. Somewhere Nowhere will continue to work with artists to display their works throughout the space. The new club, which claims to be the tallest hotel rooftop with a pool in New York City offering an immersive escape, aims to "tantalize all five senses" using vibrant lights that will dim over time to signal day turning to night, whimsical decor by Let It Be Made 8, a state-of-the-art sound system by DNA Illuminations (the first club to use KV2 Audio Speakers in NYC), and even the scent of a magical forest. Guests can get a 360-degree view of Manhattan on the 39th-floor penthouse's outdoor lounge and open-air rooftop pool, where they'll be able to dance to music by international and local DJs. Somewhere Nowhere will bring the club to life with daily programming from pool parties with world-renowned DJs to captivating live music, or an immersive dinner experience with a magic show.

In addition to boasting a private tasting room, Jewel Thief has equipped each table with a call button that immediately lights up a numbered vault above the bar, ensuring that every guest gets the VIP treatment. As for the cocktails? Expect cheeky sips like the Green Vault and Pink Panther, which pay homage to famous heists in history.

Mission Nightclub
Partner Bobby Kwak says that the real reason Circle closed was because they couldn’t afford the new lease asking price at the club, which was in an area that now has a Whole Foods and a SoulCycle. It’s working out better for them though, he says: Mission Nightclub, which opens on March 3 at 229 West 28th Street between Seventh and Eighth avenues, is slightly closer to K-Town, where many of their clientele party before and after going to the club anyway. It’s also bigger than Circle, he adds. Mission won’t be that different from Circle. Like its predecessor, Mission will mimic clubs in Korea, with plates of cut up fruit for people who order bottle service and well-dressed men as servers instead of the cocktail waitresses more common at American clubs. A new and upgraded sound system will also be in place, as will a new lighting system. Otherwise, “a club is a club at the end of the day: lights, music, dancing, bars,” Kwak says. Besides the superior space and the lost of the previous lease, the partners also decided to reopen a Korean nightclub elsewhere because “there’s a need for something like this,” he says. Circle had been around for a decade and was primarily a go-to club for Koreans, Korean Americans, and other Asians and Asian Americans. In an oral history about the club, website The Ringer calls it “an epicenter of Korean nightlife in New York.” It frequently sported long lines every weekend, had a location near Times Square, and was visited by celebrities like Usher, Anthony Bourdain, and Pharrell Williams — but was virtually unknown to people outside the community. Ultimately, the new club’s — ahem — mission will be the same as Circle, too: to be a place for Asians and Asian Americans. “The Asian community, they hate to admit it, but they loved Circle,” Kwak says. “It’s like a safe haven for them. It’s kind of like Cheers. …that’s what Circle was to the Asian community. People were regulars were there because they felt a sense of comfort. They felt a sense of home. It was a place where people in the Asian community were able to connect with each other.”

But the historical references go back even further to the 19th century, with a custom wallcovering depicting the neighborhood’s pastoral past. Wood-clad, barrel-vaulted ceilings are reminiscent of a hidden underground chamber where whiskey might have been stored in the bootlegger era. Cush banquettes, locally crafted vintage chandeliers, jewel-toned velvet sofas, a glowing copper DJ stand, and a mirrored-copper bar illuminated by an overhead bank of backlit whiskey bottles bring the seductive space to life. Under psychedelic lighting and in the midst of our scantily clad servers, a night at Little Sister is one you won’t soon forget.

VIRGO New York City Lounge, Nightclub Event Space. ... VIRGO a new revolution in New York City Nightlife. Although the appeal of a giant nightclub has always been a bit lost on us, we must admit there’s something about dancing to loud music surrounded by a horde of strangers that some New Yorkers absolutely adore—which is why we’re not surprised to hear about the opening of a new club in the heart of the Lower East Side. Dubbed Virgo, the 3,000-square-foot electronic music destination at 324 Grand Street by Orchard Street isn't only noteworthy because of its focus on deep house music, a genre that many New Yorkers think hasn't received as much attention as it deserves in recent years, but exciting because of its investment in a state-of-the-art sound system that was actually imported from the United Kingdom.

Hearsay

This secretive establishment is fast becoming the talk of the town among the fashion-forward elite. The allure of Hearsay lies not only in its carefully curated events but also in the mystery that shrouds its location.

As New York Fashion Week unfolded, the club continued its winning streak by hosting an array of exclusive private events, solidifying its status as the go-to spot during this iconic week in the fashion calendar. Rumors claim Tobey Maguire, Cara Delevigne, A$AP Ferg, and Coi Leray were in attendance. As part of its spectacular opening weekend, Hearsay featured an electrifying performance by Dixon. Rising from his beginnings in Berlin's electronic music scene, Dixon has evolved into a visionary figure in the industry. He co-runs the renowned record label "Innervisions" alongside Frank Wiedemann and Kristian Rädle of Ȃme. In a city renowned for its vibrant nightlife, Hearsay is poised to become the ultimate destination for those seeking an unforgettable night out.

Paul's Casablanca
As you approach 305 Spring Street in Soho, there is a neon-lit, green and red sign that reads “McGovern’s Tavern,”. It is a 100-year-old New York City landmark, guarded by two international flags – one from America and one from Morocco. Walk too fast and you might miss Paul Sevigny’s newest nightlife spot, Paul’s Casablanca. The venue is formerly known to night-life veterans as Sway Lounge, where Sevigny played his first Morrisey x Smith night and established an ongoing 14-year tradition. Enter into the nondescript building of Paul’s Casablanca and you’ll be transported into the luxe nightclub version of a Moroccan garden, keeping the same motifs as the previous tenant, telling the New York Times the only difference in the interior is “extreme cleanliness.” There are colorful mosaic tiles creating backsplashes for the sage banquettes. Pierced glass lanterns hanging from the ceiling. Horseshoe archways and handmade leather poufs. Bartenders wearing kaftans and djeballas – traditional North African clothing. A $20 dollar cocktail served with mint, green tea and vodka called The Casablanca. And, of course, a disco ball. Sevigny and his co-owners Brian McPeck, and Dominick D’Alleva are no strangers to the nightlife scene and have perfected the craft of throwing a party to remember. McPeck is the former frontman of the electro-punk band A.R.E. Weapon. D’Alleva is the former owner of the now-defunct Sway Lounge, known for the lowkey celeb and A-list DJ appearances. Sevigny (brother of the legendary cool girl Chloe Sevigny) is the former owner of cult West Village club Beatrice Inn, known for its impossible door, where everyone from Kate Moss to the Olsen twins, to Prince could be seen partying until about 2009. He’s also currently the owner of two LA nightclubs (Paul And Andre’s and Smoke and Mirrors) and Paul’s Cocktail Lounge at The Roxy Hotel. Paul’s Casablanca is a bit more luxe than Beatrice Inn and a bit more party-oriented than Paul’s Cocktail Lounge. But, the common denominator is that you’ll definitely have a good time whether it’s getting sweaty and body-rolling on the dance floor, or people watching the celebrities, influencers and fashion it-girls that frequent the space. So far, the SoHo spot has been a go-to for fashion week afterparties and had a launch party hosted by Purple Magazine. On regular nights, the music sets the mood, from hip-hop Thursdays with DJs like Mark Ronson and Q-Tip to Morrissey and Smith Sundays.
