Set up more than 15 years ago inside a venue that once used to store ships and boats, this slick, jet-black emporium of overhanging Funktion One stacks and spellbinding flashing lights sets an example most others can only dream of following. 3 uniquely designed floors (Mainfloor, BLCKBX, Dreherei) are the stages of the world’s most renowned Deejays.

Bridging industrial underground values with mainstream electronic sounds, Bootshaus, Germany’s best nightclub, is a place reserved for the fresher, more edgy end of EDM, D’n’B, Dubstep, Trap and much more — the likes of Netsky, Carnage, DJ Snake and Yellow Claw love to play for one of the best crowds in the world. While techno acts like Sven Väth and full-on trance acts like Tiesto and Paul Van Dyk share that same love.
