The name is directly inspired by a mythical New York place. The atmosphere resembles the best small electro clubs in European capitals. We are here in the Opera district, but at Danceteria, nothing to do with the atmosphere of the surrounding clubs. Relaxed mentality, love of music, peace of mind and conviviality between dancers, that's all that counts. A welcome concept in a city that is still too old-fashioned in its way of partying. Thanks to places like the Chapiteau or Danceteria, Marseille is in tune with the times. Famous DJs are programmed and announced regularly on social networks. Local and international scene.

The Trolleybus is one of the oldest discotheques in Marseille. This is a fact but it is still in the air of time and eternal youth. Its location on the Old Port, very close to many bars, makes it one of the busiest night spots in the city every weekend. Established in the galleries of the former galley arsenal, the nightclub is made up of several rooms with different atmospheres. All generations will therefore find their happiness there. A petanque room even completes the whole.

Well known by the Côte d'Azur clubbers, this night club offers two rooms for two different atmospheres. The Trendy is chic, young, trendy and plays the hits of the moment and Latin rhythms.

The Ambassadors are THE nightclub in Avignon. Located in the city centre, it offers a trendy setting to spend a good evening with friends...

The only openly gay disco in Toulon, the Boy's Paradise is truly the boys'paradise. Some compare it at the Queen… Well, all proportions, it's an important place in the toulonnaise community life.

Opened in November 2022 on a small and lively square of the Cours Julien, this dance bar is a model of its kind, quite unique in the city: a place for all, without distinction of gender and sex, where tolerance and benevolence are the order of the day. The public is rather young but mixes during the night. The musical program is rather focused on electronic music. The customers feel good and not judged, we can only appreciate this kind of place which is widespread in Northern Europe but still too rare in our Mediterranean cities.

Le Cancan or New Cancan, depending on the name, is THE reference for gay clubbing in Marseille. Founded in 1991 by Michel Piacenza, it's just a stone's throw from the Canebière, and attracts a gay and gay-friendly clientele every Saturday in a supercharged atmosphere. In the 1970s, the creator of Le Cancan created one of the city's first openly gay bars.

Enter this lair of the coast, 100% VIP… You will be screened under the lights and taste for one evening (or more if affinity) the star-system. Posh, brodersingers, but frankly frenzy. A sparkling evening and the opportunity to immerse itself in the high-society, which is packed up and completely lâche on techno house until the early morning in a classroom (with plasma screens). This is the Big Ben, an institution born in the 60 s… but still a trend!

The Bazaar and the Palmeraie (in summer) are THE dance floor of the 8th, one of the most famous in the Phocaean city. Here, the management is working hard to renew the offer, attract the jet set with the best international house music labels and DJs in sight. In other words, the bouncers are not laughing at the entrance, the selection is tough. In the summer, the Bazaar settles outside, on its terrace, for outdoor parties at the Palmeraie. A dense program for the golden youth of Marseilles, with afterworks, private showcases of renowned artists, but also theme nights and famous djs. The policy at the door is rather strict, come well dressed.
