Club entertainment in Ukraine

  1. A

    Barsky

    At the top end, new clubs are constantly trying to outdo each other in terms of price, decadence and beauty of clientele, such as Decadance House and Arena Night Club, but the talk of the town when we were there was the newly opened Barsky. To enter any of these you'll have to pass through some of the strictest feis kontrol (face control, ie door policy) in the city, so dress the part. Women usually get a substantial discount off the admission prices listed.

    Dnipro Party Boats

    To really go local take one of these 1½-hour ‘disco’ river cruises. They’re cheap, they’re cheesy, and they’re unpredictable. Just buy a ticket, board the boat (they leave when full) and start drinking. Didn’t think you’d get caught dead dancing to Russian pop? Think again. Catch the boats at pier 11, south of the richnoy vokzal (river boat terminal).

    Decadance House

    New clubs are constantly trying to outdo each other in terms of price, decadence and beauty of clientele. Decadance House was the original VIP club, but you’ll have to pass through some of the strictest feis kontrol (face control, ie door policy) in the city, so dress the part.

    Labyrinth

    Dnipropetrovsk’s nightclubs are fast attaining legendary status in Ukraine. A small but excellent nightclub in the centre is Labyrinth. Women usually get in free to this place.

  6. Virus

    A 15-minute taxi ride east of the centre is Donetsk’s hottest club, with a simmering crowd dancing in multiple chambers. This is not the place to chill out.

    Shooters

    A classic pick-up joint where hordes of expats and pretty young things flock night after night to dance to the same tired soundtrack until way past bedtime.
