Royal Unicorn Cabaret
A grungy, uninspiring old-school lounge throughout the week, the Unicorn is transformed on Salbourg Saturdays into perhaps the city’s best alternative night out, when it’s packed to the rafters with indie lads and lasses celebrating a relentless barrage of ironically cool dance music. They’re certainly not here for the beer selection, which runs all the way from Coors to Kokanee. Arrive early to avoid the line-ups.

Sonar
Many Vancouverites don’t know it, but double-roomed Sonar is actually the city’s premier club for experimental DJs and live club shows from all over the globe. On any given night you’re likely to find progressive house, jazz fusion, soul, hip-hop, reggae or electronica. It’s definitely worth braving the atmosphere – which can sometimes be thick with attitude – if you know exactly what you’re looking for.

Glo
Victoria's best mod lounge bar, Glo has waterfront views, cozy oversized booths and a warming red-hued ambience. A great spot for nighttime cocktails, this is where the city's beautiful young people come to ogle each other. The food is also worth an ogle: the flatbread pizzas are great and the dessert menu covers all the bases. DJs spin a few tracks on weekends.

Cadillac Ranch
For dancing, look for the parking lot of pick-ups at the bustling Cadillac Ranch, where the band or DJ plays mostly country music (classic rock does slip in) and you can two-step to your heart's content. The club gets many touring acts.
