Fusion is a dance club located in Seattle's U-District, near the University of Washington. Fusion is one of the only places in town that allows guests under 21 but also serves alcohol. Guests under 21 may be distinguished by bracelets or stamps at the bar, but not on the dance floor. The club interior is expansive and open to accommodate the wall-to-wall sea of people that enter the crowd on event nights, which feature exclusive DJs or other performing artists.
Fusion is a favorite among college students looking for house music, lasers and lots of dancing. Seattle has a diverse and vibrant club scene with several live music venues, night clubs and discotheques. Although most of these businesses are only available to patrons age 21 or older, there are a few clubs that are are all ages, and some that open their doors to guests 18 years of age or older on specific nights.
Many nightclubs use bouncers to choose who can enter the club, or specific lounges or VIP areas. Some nightclubs have one group of bouncers to screen clients for entry at the main door, and then other bouncers to screen for entry to other dance floors, lounges, or VIP areas. For legal reasons, in most jurisdictions, the bouncers have to check ID to ensure that prospective patrons are of legal drinking age and that they are not intoxicated already. In this respect, a nightclub's use of bouncers is no different from the use of bouncers by pubs and sports bars. However, in some nightclubs, bouncers may screen patrons using criteria other than just age and intoxication status, such as dress code, guest list inclusion, and physical appearance.
The Masquerade is one of Atlanta's hottest and most well-known clubs, with diverse programming and exciting live music nearly every night of the week.

By the late 1970s, many major U.S. cities had thriving disco club scenes centered on discothèques, nightclubs, and private loft parties where DJs would play disco hits through powerful PA systems for the dancers.
The DJs played "a smooth mix of long single records to keep people 'dancing all night long'". Some of the most prestigious clubs had elaborate lighting systems that throbbed to the beat of the music. In Germany during the Golden Twenties, there was a need to dance away the memories of the First World War. In the 1920s, the nightlife of the city was dominated by party drugs such as cocaine. Hundreds of venues in the city, which at the time had a sinful reputation, offered in addition to bars, stages, and dance floors an erotic nightlife, such as small booths where lovers could withdraw to for intimate moments.
These venues were aimed at rich and poor people, gays, lesbians, nudists, and gangsters alike.

During the 1980s, during the New Romantic movement, London had a vibrant nightclub scene, which included clubs like The Blitz, the Batcave, the Camden Palace, and Club for Heroes.
These clubs grew out of the earlier Mandrake and Billy's (later Gossip's) at 69 Dean Street, in the basement below the ground floor Gargoyle Club. Both music and fashion embraced the aesthetics of the movement. Bands included Depeche Mode, Yazoo, The Human League, Duran Duran, Eurythmics, and Ultravox.
Reggae-influenced bands included Boy George and Culture Club, and electronic vibe bands included Visage. At London nightclubs, young men would often wear make-up and young women would wear men's suits. Leigh Bowery's Taboo bridged the New Romantic and acid house scenes. The "Kakadu" (1919–1937), one of Berlin's best-known dance- and nightclubs since the early 1920s, offered a bar, a dance floor, live music played by jazz band, and cabaret. The first nightclubs appeared in New York City in the 1840s and 1850s, including McGlory's and the Haymarket.
They enjoyed a national reputation for vaudeville, live music, and dance. They tolerated unlicensed liquor, commercial sex, and gambling cards, chiefly Faro. Practically all gambling was illegal in the city , and regular payoffs to political and police leadership was necessary.
Prices were high and they were patronized by an upscale audience. Timothy Gilfoyle called them "the first nightclubs". By contrast, Owney Geoghegan ran the toughest nightclub in New York, 1880–83. It catered to a downscale clientele and besides the usual illegal liquor, gambling, and prostitution, it featured nightly fistfights, and occasional shootings, stabbings, and police raids.
Webster Hall is credited as the first modern nightclub, being built in 1886 and starting off as a "social hall", originally functioning as a home for dance and political activism events. A nightclub (music club, discothèque, disco club, or simply club) is an entertainment venue during nighttime comprising a dance floor, lightshow, and a stage for a disc jockey where a DJ plays recorded music. Buckhead Village, once a notorious nightlife district, was mercilessly bulldozed in 2007 but its indulgent spirit only went underground.
The old hood's curious mixture of playfulness and tenacity lives on in Prohibition, a cigar bar that bills itself as a 1920's speakeasy. Guests enter a British red telephone box, dial a "secret" number, then push a hidden door to find a well-appointed throwback to classic jazz cabarets. With the stricter-than-usual dress code and $13 cocktails, it may feel like a production. Still, Prohibition makes for a charming place to reminisce about drinking in the old days.
The largest of the VIP lounges, at 985 square feet, The JAY-Z Lounge can accommodate up to 80 guests. Luxurious bespoke lounge seating encircles a custom billiard table, 4–75 inch & 2–55 inch screen HD televisions, custom chandeliers, cerused oak paneling with silver leaf detailing, and stately wood floors enhance the décor.

Come prepared to make your requests on All-Request Mondays and enjoy Ladies Night every Wednesday. Check the online schedule of live talent to catch an up-and-coming band or a local favorite. Dive bars offer more than budget drinks and a small cast of colorful regulars.
These low-key establishments also offer respite from the daily grind and crowds who often frequent the city's trendier watering holes. It's hard to beat a dive bar on some nights. Sometimes all one really wants is to relax solo with a good book or with a group of good friends and to escape the frenetic pace of life with loaded nachos and wings paired with a cold beer, rum and Coke, or a well shot. Keep in mind that many Atlanta nightclubs are more exclusive and require bottle service to get in.

It's probably safe to say that going out for drinks is the most popular nighttime move for everyone ages 21 and up, but that doesn't mean you have to settle for your typical neighborhood bar. This year alone, Atlanta's bar scene has gotten a huge upgrade, and two of the most stunning new watering holes are JoJo's Beloved and The Bar at the Illuminarium.
