7 Best Singapore Clubs

The best clubs in Singapore are hard to keep track of because of the fast-paced nature of the city and its ever-evolving tastes. The Singapore clubbing scene in the city has grown exponentially over the last decade, nightclubs seem to open and close periodically, with even the longest running and best loved of them all, Zouk, under threat of closure.

This list of the best clubs in Singapore should help you keep your faith in Singapore’s vibrant, yet ever-changing clubbing scene. We’ve hit the party hotspots of Singapore and these are the results.

1. Headquarters

Crimson-drenched techno

Good for: Nightlife

This underground club sticks to bass-heavy sounds. Headquarters attracts a relaxed crowd who come to dance and feel the music rather than be seen. The club occupies an unsuspecting shophouse and hosts crowds over 2 floors. The music depends on the night but typically covers techno, house, and disco.

The ceiling is low, the interior design is minimal allowing the signature red lights to create the atmosphere in the graffiti covered space. The sound system is incredible quality and the DJs in the caged booth are really cutting edge.
