1. Fleek

Relatively new to the club enclave in Clarke Quay, Fleek opened as a “hip hop shrine” for fans of sick rap. Though It’s a pretty small club, it’s been attracting crowds of people for its reasonably priced drinks and attentive service.
Psst…there are $10 jagerbombs all night during #OnFleek Fridays!

Hidden within the quaint grounds of CHIJMES is Refuge, a club filled with graffiti walls and underground street vibes.

4. Cherry Discotheque

We love Cherry Discotheque’s game when it comes to its aesthetics. Be it the retro arcade machines or neon wall decor, it’s irresistibly attractive to young hipsters these days. Feeling a little rebellious? Cherry will feel like home to that attitude. Whip out momma’s best party clothes to blend in with its old-school vibes!

6. Altimate

Altimate’s a club where you can expect to get high, literally. Perched on the 61st story of One Raffles Place, the club offers a killer night view of Singapore from Marina Bay Sands to Clarke Quay. I’d recommend splurging on its tables; they’re well cordoned off to ensure no random drunkard will crash your exclusive party.

Size: M | Music: EDM
Good for: Clubbing with a view – amazing view from one of Singapore’s highest skyscrapers

Plush velvet seats, scarlet red walls and a bar lit by a chandelier; f.Club’s Ruby Room is for glitzy young ladies and well groomed men. After all, it’s Singapore’s only fashion-themed club. When you get tired of chart toppers in this room, hop over to its Diamond Hall for more booming bass drops and house music.

10. Zouk

It’d be borderline criminal not to include Zouk in this list. The big OG of local clubs, Zouk is practically on every tour guide book about Singapore and it’s where most local youngsters pop their clubbing cherry at 18 years old. For a finer experience, you can enter Capital on the second floor where the atmosphere is more lounge-like and exquisite.
Here’s how you can get 1-for-1 drinks and free entry at the mega club.
