10Best Dance Clubs
Showbox at the Market
(Nightlife - Dance Clubs)
1426 1st Ave, Seattle  98101 • 206-628-3151 • 800-325-7328
Distance: ~1198 ft *
        Description: DOWNTOWN. Although it's experienced a variety of incarnations, the Showbox today is a must-visit place to catch touring bands. Amid Art Deco columns, young and hip crowds clamor to hear and see their favorite groups. There's even a dance floor for them to show off their moves if the spirit strikes. Plus, several bars accommodate patrons with a good menu of libations. If hunger strikes, check out the Green Room for some Mexican-inspired pub grub. DJs play when bands aren't booked.

Noc Noc
(Nightlife - Dance Clubs)
1516 2nd Ave, Seattle  98101 • 206-223-1333
Distance: ~1234 ft *
        Description: DOWNTOWN. Stylish decor, comfortable furnishings and cheap drinks make this club an appealing happy hour spot, but watch out for its dance parties! The moment that DJs start playing pop or alternative rock tracks, a diverse, high-energy cast of characters hits the floor. For a flashback to the '80s, show up on Tuesday or Saturday, or come on Wednesday for an Indie / Electro / Britpop fix.

Alibi Room
(Nightlife - Dance Clubs)
85 Pike St, #410 at Post Alley, Seattle  98101 • 206-623-3180 • 206-779-1596
Distance: ~0.27 mi *
        Description: DOWNTOWN. A popular restaurant by day, the Alibi Room really comes alive at night. Owned by a group of filmmakers, the club works to support independent films and their creators, by fostering an artistic dialogue among patrons and making scripts available for public perusal. If that's a bit heavy for you, just come and dance to the mixed rhythms of rotating DJs or enjoy one of their specialty vodka drinks. You'll also find live music from time to time, along with a great wine list and tasty appetizers. A real local favorite, Alibi plays host to everyone from the eccentric to the street smart.

(Nightlife - Dance Clubs)
124 S Washington St, Pioneer Square, Seattle  98104 • 206-748-9975
Distance: ~0.50 mi *
        Description: PIONEER SQUARE. Although it enjoys a substantial reputation for its cuisine, Last Supper Club is known for its nightlife scene as well. On weekends especially, DJs spin the latest house music upstairs, while the lounge downstairs has more of a chill-out atmosphere. Patrons dance to the rhythms, finding a release for work-week tensions. Throughout it all, you'll find plenty of liquid refreshment. If you're not in the mood to boogie, hang out at the bar and mingle with other singles. You may not find Mr. or Ms. Right, but at least you'll have had fun at one of the area's coolest bars. Bands occasionally play.

Many of its patrons are gay, but many are also straight, now that the place has mellowed and expanded its reach. Thanks to a large dance floor, clubbers show off their moves with abandon, shaking and gyrating to everything from techno and disco to R&B and even the pop tunes that everyone disavows but loves nonetheless. Everyone's welcome, and you're certain to see a wide variety of patrons. After all, fun has no boundaries.
