Here is a list of the best nightclubs in Bali (in alphabetical order). What we call a nightclub is a dark, icy cold room with pretty lights and pumping electronic music. These are basically the only clubs on the island worth going to within that genre and each offers something a little different for you while enjoying the Bali nightlife.
Atlas Super Club
Atlas Super Club is a mega club right near Berawa Beach. It is enormous and part of Atlas Beach Club. The times I have been there the sound is a bit booming like a barn. They crowd is a pretty young and local. They have special guest DJs and even bands occasionally. Mostly bangin’ EDM but sometimes more undergound sounds. Capacity 2000. Open 9pm till 3am.
Genre: EDM, house, progressive, melodic techno.

Attika is on the third floor of La Favela and is a techno/house/underground haven for those trying to escape the rowdy commercial sounds downstairs. The stylish surrounds and the finely stocked bar and the cocktails they offer cater to a more stylish crowd of party goers.

Hatch is a large, wonderous space that mixes hippie, jungle, doof, and psychedelic elements to create one of the most original clubs in Bali.

The crowd is mainly foreign surfee types like most of Uluwatu, but there is also a strong local following on some nights.

Once the biggest nightclub in Bali, Sky Garden is back after a short hiatus. Not quite as big as before, it is two floors, one named Deep Red, which mostly plays hip hop and top forty sounds, while the upstairs floor, Sky Chick is more the EDM banging music room. They have some daily promos, and normally there are lots of girls in the house, both working in the local office next door types and not.
