4 dance clubs worth the night across Czech Republic, editor-ranked. All Czech Republic guides.

Cross Club ★ 4.5 · Prague

holesovice · Plynární 1096/23, 170 00 Praha 7

Cross Club fills a labyrinth of rooms in a Holešovice industrial building near Nádraží Holešovice, with sculpted scrap-metal interiors and a programme of drum and bass, dubstep, techno and live alternative acts across two stages. The cafe upstairs runs all day; the underground club opens nightly from 20:00.

Tip: The smaller second stage opens earlier than the main floor. Tram or metro C to Nádraží Holešovice is two minutes away; cash bar.

Roxy ★ 4.4 · Prague

stare-mesto · Dlouhá 33, 110 00 Praha 1

Roxy occupies a vaulted Old Town cellar on Dlouhá and has booked Prague's longest-running electronic music programme since 1992, alongside live indie and rock shows in a four-bar room beneath medieval brick arches. Bookings run from local residents to international touring DJs.

Tip: Tickets on GoOut; the queue moves fastest before midnight. The NoD theatre upstairs runs separate programming.

Mecca Club ★ 4.0 · Prague

holesovice · U Průhonu 799/3, 170 00 Praha 7

Mecca opened in 1998 in a former Holešovice factory and runs three floors with two music stages and five bars, programming house and techno on the main floor and broader hip-hop and pop on the smaller stages. Open on event weekends rather than nightly.

Tip: Tram to Dělnická is the easy way in. Programming is event-driven so check mecca.cz before turning up.

Duplex ★ 3.9 · Prague

nove-mesto · Václavské náměstí 21, 110 00 Praha 1

Duplex sits on the seventh-floor roof of a Wenceslas Square tower, with a glass-cube club and an outdoor terrace that runs through summer and a heated dome through winter. Programming runs house and electronic on the main floor with pop and dance on the rooftop bar.

Tip: The terrace is the draw; arrive before midnight for the city-view bar before the floor packs. Heated dome stays open in winter.
