Address: Berns, Berzelii Park
9pm – 4am
150 kronor
Age: 23 and over
Website

The new Berns has undergone a major facelift and has recently reclaimed its undeniable place as one of the city’s biggest, best and most ambitious nightclubs.

Walk in through the hotel entrance, go down the stairs and you will discover a gigantic floor space with more than enough room for dancing, getting to know people and hanging around in the lounge in a nice dark environment with the freshest clientele in town.

In terms of music, Berns plays everything from hip-hop to house, jazz and soul. There’s also a major focus on art exhibitions, film viewings and other visual treats.


Ace

Address: Mango Bar, Sveavägen 36
10pm - 3am
80 kronor
Age: 20 and over
Website

The most popular indie/ectro club in town continues to get the kids dancing until they're dripping with sweat every Saturday night.

Daniel Öhrn and Nils Carlén boss over proceedings with Christian Dinamarca, resident DJ in the electro room.

The main dancefloor is reserved for indie, rock, pop and such, with fairly well-known DJs and live bands often dropping by. The smaller dance floor is all about electronic dance music.

Tonight

On the indie floor, DJ collective Djuren. On the electro floor, DJ duo Mean Mr. Mustard.


Bangers´n´Mash

Address: Marie Laveau, Hornsgatan 66
10pm - 3am
100 kronor
Age: 23 and over
Website

Inseparable Anglophiles Robert Plaszczyk and Magnus Carlson (Weeping Willows) run the incredibly popular Bangers'n'Mash club together with former Ride guitarist and current Oasis bassist Andy Bell

Every second Saturday they get the dancefloor moving to the baggiest Madchester, singalong Britpop and ravetastic acid house for all the Stockholm geezers in need of more excitement in their lives.

They have also brought over a steady flow of celebrities from England, including previous guests Mani, Peter Hook, Carl Barat, Dot Allison and Ian McCulloch.

Tonight

Guests: Trummor & Orgel.


Bauer Weekends

Address: Bauer, Götgatan 15
9pm - 1am
Free entry
Age: 20 and over
Website

The hyper attractive Götgatan bar Bauer has made a major commitment to getting in great DJs every Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Large sections of the snazzy Stockholm elite are brought together in the large bar to play everything from hip hop, Baltimore club and disco to indie rock and electro.

Tonight

Jeppe Körsbär & A Lowe Thing.


Fritz´s Corner

Address: Debaser Slussen, Karl Johans Torg 1
8pm - 3am
100 kronor (60 kronor for members)
Age: 18 and over (20 for members)
Website

Fritz's Corner is one of the city's oldest and most popular rock clubs. Every Saturday sees an offering of wonderfully interesting live bands from Södermalm and abroad, as well as a busy dancefloor shaking to everything from electro pop to rock'n'roll.

Tonight

Live: American post punk noise rock trio Anavan. Support: Swedish post punks Cut City. DJs: Slagsmålsklubben and, in DFB: Brittish Swedish club Tack! Tack! Tack!


Klubb ettnollett

8pm – 1am
50 kronor
Age: 18 and over
Website

Sweden’s oldest and noblest indie fanzine ettnollett celebrates its 25th anniversary next year but has already begun celebrating with a little club at the recently refurbished Sugar Bar. You can count on there being highly interesting live acts from the pop, electronica, new wave and indie rock genres, and of course DJ action from some of the fanzine’s contributors.

Tonight

More top notch bookings from the ettnolleet crod. Live: Lothar, Woland, Wonderland Gang. DJ: Nickepop is joined by Kent.


O-Baren

Address: O-Baren, Stureplan 2
9pm - 2am
Free entry
Age: 21 and over
Website

O-Baren located right at the back of the luxury Sturehof restaurant, is like a little oasis in the middle of Stureplan. Here you can be certain of avoiding DJ Bobo, Basshunter and champagne-spraying brats. Instead Lorenzo and Nicke at the bar always make sure there are some top notch DJs playing some of the best rock, indie, electro, soul, house and disco in town.

Tonight

Olle Oljud and Jacob Portefaix play hip hop, nu-rave, techno, house, fidget etc.
