        Description: DOWNTOWN. With 28-foot ceilings, elaborate lighting effects and a top-of-the-line sound system, XS is a world class nightspot. The futuristic vibe is augmented by cutting edge DJs spinning the newest and best. Definitely one of TO's best dance clubs.

This Is London
(Nightlife - Dance Clubs)
364 Richmond St W, Toronto  M5V 2L7 • 416-351-1100
Distance: ~1.031 km *
        Description: DOWNTOWN. Well, technically, it isn't London, but it sure feels like it could be! The décor is old school British upper class: carefully finished wood floors, overstuffed armchairs, chandeliers and a fireplace. It's popular and difficult to get in – you may want to call ahead a few days and get yourself on the guest list. And whatever you do, don't show up in shredded jeans and flip flops.

Guvernment
(Nightlife - Dance Clubs)
132 Queens Quay E, Toronto  M5A 3Y5 • 416-869-0045
Distance: ~1.091 km *
        Description: DOWNTOWN. Massive is the operational word here. This place is huge – it's actually several clubs in one, each with its own vibe and specialty. Whether you want to dance til the wee hours, catch a live band, or sip champagne with friends, you can do it here.

Fly
(Nightlife - Dance Clubs)
8 Gloucester St, Toronto  M4Y 1L5 • 416-410-5426 • 416-925-6222
Distance: ~2.373 km *
        Description: DOWNTOWN. A massive 10,000 square foot club with three floors, Fly pulls in a great mix of people, some who come for the talented DJs, some who appreciate the mellow, seductive lounge areas. The place gets absolutely packed, so it's probably not the best place to wear that wool sweater. Fly had a role in the TV show Queer as Folk, as the Babylon nightclub.

Mod Club
(Nightlife - Dance Clubs)
722 College St W, Toronto  M6G 1C2 • 416-588-4663
Distance: ~3.172 km *
        Description: DOWNTOWN. Owned by musician Mark Holmes (of Platinum Blonde fame), Mod Club is a love-it or hate-it dance club and theater venue for established and up-and-coming bands, mostly from the UK. Fans insist it's the best place to catch bands that no one else books; detractors complain about long line-ups and less than friendly staff. But if you're a fan of the British "sound," there's no better place to hear it in all of TO!

El Convento Rico
(Nightlife - Dance Clubs)
750 College St, Toronto  M6G 1C5 • 416-588-7800
Distance: ~3.213 km *
        Description: WEST TORONTO. If you crave diversity, this is the place for you. The crowd is comprised of a wide range of ethnicities and persuasions, but everyone is here to party. Expect an equally broad variety of music, from reggae and salsa to house and hip-hop. Fun, midnight drag shows are a big draw as well.

Annex Wreck Room
(Nightlife - Dance Clubs)
794 Bathurst St, Toronto  M5R 3G2 • 416-536-0346
Distance: ~3.242 km *
        Description: DOWNTOWN. Wreck Room is a play on words – this place has a casual, rock-and-roll vibe with pool tables, a dance floor, arcade games and a huge bar, sort of like a glorified rec room. There's a stage for live acts, but usually DJs provide the sounds, which range from alt rock and Brit rock to retro and electronica.

The eclectic schedule might include anything from indie bands to performance artists to poetry slams. The arty hotel is a magnet for creative types – in just a few short years, Underground has hosted Broken Social Scene, Beck, The Killers, Wolfmother and KT Tunstall, sometimes as performers, sometimes as guests. For up-and-coming talent, this is the place. Hours and cover charges vary - call for current details.
