LA has lots of great night spots, but as much as the venue, it is the timing that determines the hot spot of the moment. Every night is a different promoter, different music, a different crowd, and a completely different experience. Many of the best known club nights are private parties. If you’re not on the list, you’re not getting in. And if you’re eligible to be on the list, you already know where the party is. But if you want to try your luck, A-List clubs of the moment include:
