Places of power: where are the most fashionable parties in Moscow?

The season of open verandas and dancing until the morning is much closer than it seems. We invite you to pull this season’s trendy clothes out of the closet, put on a new makeover and go to the loudest parties in the city. And where to look for them, read our material with a selection of fashionable places in Moscow.

“Simach in Nedalne”

Three years ago, the Moscow attraction, which once lived on Stoleshnikov Lane, reopened on Tverskoy Boulevard under the leadership of Arkady Novikov, Anton Pinsky, Denis Simachev and Glen Ballis. And although salmon pizza is no longer on the menu, legendary watermelon shots still do. And with them are noisy parties, at which all representatives of secular Moscow come out.

Address: Tverskoy Boulevard, 15, building 2

happy ending

“Happy” in the favorites of the Moscow party was registered a long time ago and for some reason. Here you can meet representatives of Moscow’s golden youth, take pictures in the legendary toilet of the yellow room, and also dance to the coolest tracks or drink the signature Happy Porn Star Martini.

Address: Spiridonievsky lane, 9/1

taste

Nightclub Timati and Anton Pinsky Flava opened last summer, but the hype around it continues to this day. We warn you right away – it’s hard to get there. Face control is tighter than on the legendary Simach. But here you can meet rappers and trendy DJs.

Address: Sadovaya-Kudrinskaya str., 6, building 1

Balagan

A real gastronomic theater from the restaurant operator Tatyana Berkovich (Semiramis, Mario, Mao, etc.), which at night turns into one of the most fashionable (and closed) bars of the capital. Getting here is not so easy, but the photo against the background of neon letters on the same staircase is not worth it?

Address: Stolyarny per., 3, room 16

“Mutabor”

A powerhouse for all techno and electronic music lovers. Since its opening in 2019, regulars from Rabitsa, Arma17 and other promotional groups, especially System108, have started to flock here. Three inside, one dance floor outside. In the courtyard there is a swing, armchairs (apparently the creators have been looking for it at flea markets for a very long time), a gypsy carriage, and also a tea house. In a word, when you enter the Mutabor realm, you find yourself in a completely different universe that lives by its own rules.

Address: Sharikopodshipnikovskaya st., 13, building 32

Fried Friends

Fried Friends is not empty, it seems, not a day. This is not surprising – many still remember the parties on the DFF + F veranda on Tverskoy Boulevard from the five friends of Vanya Popov, Lesha Morozov, Marko Mikhich-Jeftich, Artur Semkov and Denis Kryazhev, so they willingly retreat to their new location. Party program that continues until the morning, sets from the most fashionable metropolitan DJs and a cocktail card for every taste!

Address: Yauzskaya st., 10/2, building 4

Power Plant Moscow

“House of Power” has not lost its relevance for more than five years. On weekends, noisy parties are held here, and on weekdays the institution operates as a restaurant and bar. In the courtyard of the mansion, there is a small relaxation area, also known as the patio, where sets are played and vintage markets are held, but we love to go to Powerhouse and see Karina Istomina’s 2016 nostalgia sets. And take a picture in a large mirror.

Address: Goncharnaya st., 7/4, building 1

aerated gas

Opened at the end of the 2000s, Gazgolder continues to be one of the most popular places in Moscow at night. There are the biggest techno parties almost every weekend. Carved sofas and armchairs surround the dance floor, and paintings by young artists hang on the walls. A very pleasant backyard terrace opens up in the summer. The toilet is a different story. We still remember that on one of the walls it was written “Life is a fairy tale forever.” We have lived in this environment ever since. By the way, not everyone is allowed into the Gaz, a strict face checker can simply say: “You can’t get through. Without explaining why”. Therefore, we advise you to pay attention to the dress code.

Address: Nizhny Susalny lane, 5/26

leveldva

Leveldva is our favorite bar in Moscow. Located just above the Ugolek restaurant on Bolshaya Nikitskaya. You can’t tell from the atmospheric old interior that techno plays here on the weekends. And at least until the end of summer, we are ready to sing odes to delicious cocktails.

Note: If you suddenly want to go outside for some fresh air, it’s better to take a friend with you to descend the steep stairs without incident.

Address: Bolshaya Nikitskaya, 12 (entrance via “Ugolek”)

“Peer”

Our selection is closed by the favorite place of all zoomers in Moscow. Perhaps everyone who is a little interested in the nightlife of the capital has heard of “Rovesnik” parties. The row to the bar runs along the entirety of Maly Gnezdnikovsky Lane, but by the time you meet the facer, you’ll have already learned the names of everyone you’ll be dancing to later on Dancing Queen. On three floors there are usually three different sides, which is obviously a real quest.

Address: Maly Gnezdnikovsky lane, 9/1
