Cool EDM Clubs In Town

Truth

Truth used to be a snake park back in the day but has since been transformed into a super club that pumps electronic music every Friday and Saturday night. Parties here can go on into the wee hours of the morning and you’re most likely to leave only once you've witnessed the sunrise. There are various dance floors in Truth where different types of EDM are played. They often host international DJs and producers! Where: Old Pretoria Road, Midrand, Johannesburg.

Carfax

Carfax is another super club in Joburg that hosts all kinds of parties — live bands, DJs, drum ‘n bass events and more. Check out their lineup before you go and just remember that it’s not really a ‘walk-in’ kind of place. They’re only open when they’re hosting an event (most Friday and Saturday nights). It’s a grungy-in-a-good-way kind of spot. Just know that their street parties can get out of hand (in the best way, of course). Where: 39a Gwi Gwi Mrwebi Street, Newtown, Johannesburg. For more information, click here. And is an underground EDM club that hosts regular party nights. Thursdays are for Addictshun, which is their drum ‘n bass night and Fridays are for Toy Toy, their weekly techno residency. Both parties pump like you have no idea. They do host other kinds of parties on occasion, so check out their lineup out to stay in the loop. We should probably tell you that this is another one of those places that can suck you in and spit you out only after the sun has risen ... it’s great! Where: 39a Gwi Gwi Mrwebi Street, Newtown, Johannesburg. For more information, click here.

Kitchener's 

The place where all the coolest kids hang out is, without a doubt, Kitchener's in Braamfontein. They host all kinds of events, including lekker EDM parties. There's often a password needed to get in, but you can get that by keeping an eye on their Facebook page. The parties usually start late and end late ... and the food is not bad either. And, yes, the bar is always stocked to the brim. Where: 5 De Beer St, Braamfontein, Johannesburg. For more information, click here.
