  1. A

    Kremlin

    Gay-owned and operated, the Soviet kitsch–themed Kremlin is the heart and soul of Northern Ireland's gay scene. A statue of Lenin guides you into Tsar, the pre-club bar, from where the Long Bar leads into the main clubbing zone, Red Square. There's something going on seven nights a week – Revolution (admission £5 to £7) on Saturdays is the flagship event, with DJs mixing up dance, house, pop and commercial till 3am.

    Thompson's

    The best night at Thompson's is Friday's Groovilicious, with DJs laying down everything from funky techno to breakbeat to classic acid house, while Faith plays club classics late into Sunday night for those who don't want the weekend to end. The club, hidden away in the city centre, regularly hosts international DJs.

    Stiff Kitten

    If the student union is too grungy a venue for your tastes, head for the Stiff Kitten, a stylish bar and club under the same management as Shine. Same serious attitude to the music, but it's distinctly glitzier, appealing to an over-25 crowd.
