Club Joule
Hugely popular club that appeals to a similar mainstream set as Kyoto's
Sakai World. Lots of house, techno and hip-hop on the menu, and the club
itself is split over two floors so you can relax when not on the
dancefloor.

Bay Side Jenny
More of a concert venue than a club, this big space does hold the
occasional event, often psychedleic-trance nights and all-night
hip-hop/dancehall reggae bashes. Out by the port, Bayside Jenny has a
reputation for being a bit more edgy than many of the city's other
all-night dance venues.
Phone: 06-6576-5640

Karma
Karma opened in 1994 and is one of the city's longest-running clubs.
Regular events at the weekends and on nights before holidays, ranging
from rock'n'roll to drum'n'bass and cutting edge techno.

Sam and Dave Umeda (Sam and Dave IV)
Massively popular "party" club ? more of a good-time
disco-bar than a serious club, but it's always packed.
