This massive concrete building is the holy grail of techno clubs. Getting in is notoriously difficult, but if you make it past the bouncers, you'll be rewarded with a sound system that will rattle your bones and DJs that spin well into Monday morning.
This 24-hour club is located in a former bus depot and hosts parties that go all weekend long. They feature house and techno DJs, art installations, and multiple dance floors. The crowd is eclectic and inclusive.

Berghain is Berlin's premier techno club, known for its hardcore electronic beats and anything-goes atmosphere. Housed in a massive former power plant, Berghain is an institution for clubbers looking to party from Saturday night straight through to Monday morning.
Once you make it past the notoriously selective bouncers, a dark, cavernous space awaits. The main dance floor is surrounded by concrete walls and illuminated only by strobe lights, giving it a delightfully post-apocalyptic vibe. Two earsplitting Funktion-One soundsystems blast techno from some of the world's top DJs, like Ben Klock, Marcel Dettmann, and Ellen Allien.
If you're looking for an unforgettable night of dancing and debauchery, Insomnia should be at the top of your list. Berlin's most famous fetish club, Insomnia is open every Friday and Saturday night, featuring multiple floors of pounding techno and house music.
If you’re looking for Berlin’s hardest techno, you need to check out Tresor. This infamous nightclub is housed in an abandoned power plant, giving it a post-apocalyptic vibe that’s perfect for its industrial techno sound.
Tresor opened in 1991 and helped launch Berlin’s techno scene. It features some of the world’s most cutting-edge DJs and electronic music producers. The gritty space is split into two levels, with the main floor focusing on driving 4/4 techno beats and the lower level spinning more experimental sounds. No matter where you end up, you’re in for a thrilling sonic experience that will get your heart pounding along with the music.
The club is only open Thursday through Saturday, so plan your visit accordingly. Doors open at midnight and the music rages until the sun comes up and beyond, often not ending until well into the afternoon. As one would expect, the later you arrive, the more intense the vibe becomes. The devoted fanbase, flashing strobes and thumping basslines can be quite the assault on your senses, so pace yourself!
Tresor’s hardcore following and cult status mean it can attract quite the crowd, especially on weekends. Be prepared for the venue to be packed to the gills, and you may encounter a bit of a queue to get in. The good news is that the energy of the hyped up hordes only adds to the experience. If you’re looking for a low key night on the town, Tresor may be too full on. But if you want a taste of Berlin’s world-famous nightlife at its most extreme, Tresor should top your list. The memory of dancing the night away in that post-industrial playground will stay with you long after you’ve left the city behind.
