People are willing to travel everywhere and anywhere to try out different nightclubs, and London is blessed with a select number that many will choose when compiling their clubbing bucket list. Thankfully, the folks over at the International Nightlife Association compile a list of the best across the globe to make our lives easier in that regard, and they’ve recognised four clubs in London that are among the best in the world.
For their 2025 list, they’ve noted down the top clubs, as chosen by the public, with a 512,086 votes taken for this year for the rankings that were revealed last month. In what may come as a surprise to no one, the top three places ALL come in the land of the nightclub that is Ibiza, with [UNVRS] claiming the top spot.

It will come as a shock to no one that Fabric is the highest in the list for the capital, coming in at number 24 for the world in 2025, which is pretty good going since it is the entire planet we’re talking about here. It was also the highest on the list from the whole UK, pipping Manchester’s beloved Warehouse Project, which was ranked at number 27.
Coming right on the heels of WHP was London’s Ministry of Sound club, which landed at number 28 and is gearing up for a spectacular year to celebrate 35 years of their lively knees ups in Elephant & Castle.

After this, we have to jump to number 47 on the list to find the next London entry, which is Studio 338 in Greenwich, another South London entry that delivers on each visit, particularly in the summer with their outdoor parties.
And finally, we have the youngest London club to feature on the list: Drumsheds. Representing North London on the list, it sits in the old Tottenham IKEA, with room for 15,000 ravers on nights with huge names. They’re in at number 72 on the International Nightlife Association’s list.
London had the most clubs on the list from UK cities, but the list also showed some love to Motion in Bristol, which was ranked at number 33, and Glasgow’s Sub Club, which snuck in at number 92.
