Music Clubs in Hamburg

Liveband or international DJs - the Music Clubs in Hamburg offer the right ambience for every taste. Legendary music temples have been and still are the Golden Pudel Club and the Mojo Club, the new Molotow, Hafenklang, Kaiserkeller, Große Freiheit 36, Prinzenbar and Moondoo. The offer is never ending - But still the best recommendation is to just go with the flow of the night and to make your own experiences in little corner pubs, secret bars in backyards and souterrain-clubs.
