The best clubs in Europe
Are you planning on going clubbing on your next
holiday? Our dedicated team of clubbers have come
up with a list of the coolest clubs in Europe. They’ve
done the research, and here’s what they’ve come
up with.
Lola Jones: Fluxus Ministerija is a huge space used
for music and dance. It’s located in Lithuania.
(1) ____ When I arrived I was amazed by the size of
the building – it was enormous. While I was
standing in the queue to get in, I started talking to a
German girl who had been going to this club for
years. (2) ____ What she said was true – the art
was stunning. The building was full of about 10,000
people, all dancing. The atmosphere was electric!
There was also a massive staircase which led up to
a tower where you could listen to people reading
poetry. It was a unique clubbing experience which
was both cultural as well as fun.
Zane Cooper: Badaboum in Paris is very cool.
There are different rooms in the club which play
different kinds of music, from techno to electro.
There’s a dancefloor that isn’t too small or too big.
The emphasis in Badaboum is all on the music.
(3) ____ A friend who goes there often tells me that
he has discovered some great DJs there. When I
went and the DJ started his set, I was not
disappointed. The music was fantastic – a really
cool mix. Some of the DJs are local but others come
4 3
from around the world, and there is a mix of
newcomers and established professionals. There
are also live bands that come to play at the venue.
There is a room on the first floor that is just like a
living room. There are also computer games for
people to play. It’s a nice place to come and chill out
as well as dance.
Sophie Hall: Elrow in Barcelona is busy night and
day. It’s the place to come if you want to party from
dusk till dawn. It’s just outside the city, near the
airport. What makes this club interesting is that it
was founded by a Spanish family, and there’s a
great sense of community there. A lot of the locals
go there in the winter months. (4) ____ Many of the
clothes and costumes reminded me of the costumes
that you see at a Cirque de Soleil performance. It’s
part of the experience to admire all the clothes and
costumes. The music is also great and there are
stages for dancers and clubbers to dance on. It gets
very busy in the summer months with all the
tourists, but it is totally worth it.

sentences. (6 marks)
