OK, historic specifics out of the way first: 1234 is housed in a wonderful 17th-century greystone building that is reportedly haunted. The gargoyles and stained glass are intact, although various improvements have been made over the years. Today, the space is a dance club, owned by a group of savvy young industry types that includes celebrated DJ MC Mario. The interior has been completely revamped and is stunning, the music is a good mix of exquisitely danceable stuff, and the line-ups out front became legendary almost as soon as the place opened.

A multi-level dance club with several bars and a big, mixed crowd, Club Unity is known as the biggest dance venue in the Gay Village. But it's also the friendliest and most diverse, with plenty of entertaining options if you just don't have the energy for booty-shaking but still want to be out and about, from karaoke to drag shows. DJs play a wide variety of music but know how to keep the club kids happy. Trendy but not at all pretentious!

Get out your platform shoes and polyester threads, this is more than just a blast from the past. FunkyTown offers those nostalgic for the sexy seventies a feast for the eyes and the ears. With walls draped in velvet, a dance platform that glows in checkerboard brights and the can't-do-without sparkling mirrorball overhead, dancers can groove to the musical stylings of the era, or on Thursdays the weekly homage to the sounds of French pop from the 50s, 60s and 70s. Don't miss Martin Stevens reprising his hit Love is in the Air every Friday and Saturday.

So where do you go once the regular clubs have shut down for the night? Try Millennium, where part of the complex keeps regular club hours and the other part keeps the party going until the following morning. The place is huge, with plenty of room for getting your groove on, and the multiple bars serve a full array of thirst quenchers. Add to that the lack of a line-up and the absence of pretension, and you have a clubber's paradise.
