If you want to go clubbing in Tbilisi, then you’re going to have plenty of options. There is a number of brilliant nightclubs that all have something slightly different to offer. Here we look at the eight best nightclubs in Tbilisi, where you’ll be able to drink and dance the night away.
1. Bassiani
One of the most popular spots in Tbilisi is the Bassiani nightclub. If you love techno and house music, then there are not many better places in Europe to go on a night out. You’ll find many happy Georgians there but also plenty of tourists too.
The sound that you get in there is high-quality, and the atmosphere is very friendly. It’s situated in the place of a former swimming pool which helps to give it a unique look. It’s a great space in which to dance without feeling too hot or restricted.
There is usually a great range of DJ’s playing, and the place even has its own record label. ‘Bass’ forms part of the name of the night club, and it lives up to that with its brilliant sound system that will allow you to feel every beat.

2. KHIDI

3. Lolita
Lolita hasn’t been open for a long time, but it has quickly found itself as one of the best spots in Tbilisi. It has an urban style interior where you can have any type of experience that you want. The place is full of good vibes and you’ll be made to feel welcome.
One of the best things about this place is that it’s spread over three stories. If you’re not into raving or sometimes need a break from it, then there is both a lounge and bar area where it is a little bit more chilled out and relaxed.
If you fancy dancing the night away then you can head up to the third floor. It’s a young and vibrant place that also has great food throughout the day. It’s an interesting place and one you’ll want to visit if you’re in Tbilisi.

4. Mtkvarze
The Mtkvarze building is another one that comes from an old repurposed building. Unlike many nightclubs, the building is beautiful and situated right next to the river. It has two different rooms, allowing you to have a choice of music.
Like with most clubs in Georgia, you can expect house and techno music, which is played in the main room. In that second room, you will often find various types of music that can be anywhere from disco to hip hop, depending on the type of night.
It’s another that has an incredible sound system, and you’re not going to be disappointed. There are a few other great nightclubs around it, such as Bassiani, Spacehall, and Khidi, which helps to make it a great hub if you wanted to try out a few different venues.

5. Café Gallery
If you went to visit this place in the daytime, then you’d be left surprised about what it turns into. In the day it is a nice café that serves a range of food. You can enjoy hot drinks and have a relaxing experience as you take a break in your day.
At night it turns into a great little nightclub. There is only a limited capacity with a capacity of around two hundred people. What that atmosphere does give you is a great vibe with an atmosphere that is very friendly and welcoming.
It’s perfect for those people who like to go out clubbing but don’t like going to huge venues. It mainly plays house and techno and a lot of the time they will have a DJ playing. It’s a great place to try out, even for one drink, but you’ll probably end up staying for a lot more.

6. Spacehall
Bassiani is located under the main stadium, and so is Spacehall. It’s a little more laid back than its neighbor, but you’re still going to find techno, and house music played there. It’s great to visit both places in the same night.
It has a large dancefloor and often has live acts and DJ’s to get the crowd going. It’s in a great location with many other clubs around it. The sound system is high quality, and the atmosphere is pleasant and joyful, allowing for a great night.
For those that love clubbing, it’s a great place to go to the city. You’ll be able to have a great night here, and if you want to take a breather, there is also a lounge. It’s very highly rated by those who have been there, and it’s very easy to see why.

7. Floor 8
If you’re looking for a classier experience, then Floor 8 could well be the place for you. It’s more of a high-end bar where you’ll be able to get all manner of fancy drinks. It’s not very well-known among tourists but it’s very highly rated.
One of the best parts of this bar is where it is and what you can see. It’s situated near Freedom Square, and from the terrace, you’ll have a brilliant view of the old town. It’s a perfect place to relax after a long day of sightseeing.
It’s the type of place that locals like to meet after work for drinks and is a lot more sophisticated than other clubs that we’ve looked at in this list. There is no specific dress code, but the majority of people in the bar are going to be dressed quite smartly.
Where to find it: 3 Vekua Street
8. Mzesumzira’s Ezo
If you fancy something a little different, the Ezo Festival would be a brilliant option. It’s only on for two days in the year, but if you’re in Tbilisi in the middle of June, then it’s a must-see. It’s held outside and has a brilliant and relaxed atmosphere.
You don’t have to go to a regular club in order to dance the night away and instead you can enjoy the experience and thrill of doing it outdoors. In the daytime there are many great events that you can enjoy too, making it a full-day experience.
There is a great community feel to the festival with a colorful and vibrant togetherness where great music and memories can be shared. How enjoyable it’ll be may be dependent on the weather, but even if it’s raining, you can still have a great time.
