Currently, no other SF venue books more top dance music DJs than Ruby Skye. On their 18+ TORQ Thursdays, make sure you keep all drinks & water upstairs -- the bouncers take their job very seriously.
This intimate space is a great place to catch just-under-the-radar house and techno acts, plus big names like Cazzette, Sander Van Doorn, and Chuckie. Don't forget to dance on the tables!
One of SF's newer clubs, the Grand goes big with two floors and bars/bathrooms on each. On nights with impossibly long guestlist lines, try your luck with going straight to the door to pay the cover.
Don't be put off by the sketchy surroundings -- the Mezz is the small venue with space. See The Twelves, Simian Mobile Disco, and other alternative dance acts here.
This legendary venue has hosted Deadmau5, Avicii, Kaskade, and many more. Plenty of room to move, with bathrooms on both upper and lower levels.
