Tucked inside the old Markthalle IX building in Kreuzberg, Privatclub draws a mixed crowd of locals and visitors who come for the reliably good DJ sets. The music ranges from indie and electro to hip-hop depending on the night, and the vibe stays unpretentious despite the club's growing reputation.
The space is split between a smaller bar area upstairs and a proper dance floor in the basement. Things don't really get going until after midnight, and the door policy is relaxed by Berlin standards. Check their listings before heading out -- themed nights vary widely in energy and genre.
