If you're wondering where to party in Bali, we've rounded up 12 of the best nightclubs in Bali, covering different areas, music styles and party scenes.
Best nightclubs in Bali

Perched 100 metres above the Indian Ocean in Uluwatu, Savaya is where you go when you want the music, the views and the full Bali party experience in one place. The venue has hosted some of the biggest names in electronic music, from Black Coffee, FISHER and Charlotte de Witte to Jamie Jones, Solomun, Keinemusik and RÜFÜS DU SOL.
The setting is a big part of the appeal, with an infinity pool, ocean-facing dance floor, VIP cabanas and the famous Savaya Cube hanging over the cliff. We'd get there before sunset, order a drink and settle in for the view before the music really gets going. Once the DJs take over, the whole place shifts gears, and that's when Savaya is at its best.

Looking for a night out that feels a little more polished? After Rock at AYANA Resort Bali brings together cocktails, live entertainment and late-night dancing across a two-storey space in Jimbaran. There's a lounge, rooftop and dance floor, with a 9-metre kinetic laser wall adding plenty of drama to the main room. We like it for those nights when you want to dress up, grab a drink and still have somewhere to dance later.
The entertainment is what keeps things interesting, with live bands, DJs and cabaret performances on the agenda. It's also an easy one to pair with an evening at Rock Bar, turning sunset drinks into a full night out without leaving AYANA.

There's something about The Mesa when the night gets going. Spread across three floors, this Canggu spot gives you a little bit of everything, from a rooftop for taking a breather to DJ-led floors where the Afrobeat gets people moving. The rooftop is our favourite spot to sit back for a while, while the first and second floors are where the party really picks up.
Shisha, drinks and late-night music keep the energy going, making it easy to settle in for a few hours rather than rushing off somewhere else. If you're looking for an Afrobeat night in Canggu, this is one to keep on your list.

If you're after a proper late-night club in Seminyak, Klymax Discotheque brings a darker, more underground feel to Bali's party scene. The space leans into a classic discotheque atmosphere, with a dance floor, bold lighting and DJs keeping the energy up into the early hours. We like it for nights when the plan is simple: good music, a few drinks and dancing without the beach-club setting.
Music moves across house, techno and electronic, with different DJs and events shaping the night. It's a more intimate option compared with Bali's larger superclubs, making it a good pick when you want to stay close to the dance floor and keep the night going.

Get ready for a Canggu night out at Desa Kitsuné, where a sprawling garden, bar and dance floor come together for a lively open-air party. The space feels social and energetic without being overly clubby, with plenty of room to move around or settle in with friends. We particularly like the garden setting, which gives the night a distinctly Bali feel while keeping the atmosphere stylish.
The agenda is all about DJs, curated events and late-night parties, with music ranging from house and techno to electronic and Afro sounds. Come for drinks and dinner, then stay as the garden gets busier and the music picks up. It's one of our picks for a more social Canggu night out.

When it comes to nightclubs in Uluwatu, Club Corazon brings something different to the scene with its two-level space built around late-night dancing. The venue combines indoor and open-air areas, with a retractable roof and garden setting that give the club a more relaxed Bali feel. We like having different spaces to move between as the night gets busier, without losing sight of the dance floor.
House, techno, disco, R&B and Latin shape the music across its different nights, alongside guest DJs and curated parties. It's a good place to swap sunset drinks for dancing, particularly if you're looking for a more energetic side of Uluwatu after dark.

A list of Bali's best nightclubs wouldn't be complete without a stop in Ubud, and The Blue Door is our pick for keeping the party going in the cultural capital. Set on Monkey Forest Road, this lively spot combines a beer garden, live music and a dedicated club lounge, so you can start with drinks and bands before heading through to the dance floor.
The Club Lounge keeps things moving with resident DJs and different sounds throughout the week, from house and tech house to Afrobeats, Dancehall, Latin House, disco pop and hip-hop. It's not trying to be a mega-club, and that's exactly the appeal. If you're staying in Ubud and want a proper night out without heading south, The Blue Door is where we'd go.

Vault brings a proper underground edge to Canggu nightlife, hidden below street level with a dark, industrial interior that feels a world away from the usual Bali party scene. The focus is firmly on house and techno, with a powerful sound system and DJs who keep things moving well into the night. I particularly like the atmosphere here once the room fills up. It feels intimate, a little gritty and much more music-led than your typical Canggu night out.
The crowd comes for the music, and that's what makes it stand out. Expect deep house, tech house and techno, with local and international DJs taking over the booth. If you've already done the beach clubs and want somewhere to properly dance, this is one of our Canggu picks.

Taking Italian-inspired nightlife in Bali in a different direction, Il Salotto combines good food, cocktails and music in a lively late-night setting. The Italian dishes and drinks make a great start to the evening, while the DJ sets gradually turn the atmosphere towards dancing.
Come for dinner and cocktails, then stay as the music picks up and the evening gets livelier. If you're dressing up and want to ease into a night out with good food before hitting the dance floor, Il Salotto is a fun place to start.

Located in Canggu, Miss Fish brings together Japanese dining, cocktails and late-night music in one stylish space. The night starts on a more intimate note around the omakase counter, then gradually picks up as the DJs come in and the atmosphere shifts. We love this kind of setup because you can settle in for dinner, order a few drinks and let the night naturally turn into dancing without having to move somewhere else.
The music leans towards deep house, electronic, Afro and melodic sounds, giving the room a laid-back groove before things get livelier later on. For us, Miss Fish works best when you come with friends, start with dinner and cocktails, and simply stay as the night gets going.

Not every night out needs to happen in a massive superclub. Jade by Todd English is the kind of place where the evening can start over cocktails and dinner before naturally turning into dancing. We particularly like the combination of good food, drinks and DJ sets, as it gives the night a bit more variety than simply heading straight to the dance floor.
For us, the music is a big part of the appeal, with DJs creating the atmosphere as the night picks up. Add cocktails, a lively crowd and plenty of time to settle in, and Jade makes an easy choice for a Seminyak night out when you want to eat, drink and dance in one place.

Ready for a big night out in Canggu? Atlas Super Club brings the full-scale club experience with a massive dance floor, high-energy production and a lineup of local and international DJs. Think booming sound, impressive visuals and a crowd that knows how to keep the energy up. We'd recommend coming with your party crew and arriving ready to dance, because this is definitely not a quiet night out.
With EDM, house, hip-hop and open-format sets on rotation, the sound changes depending on who's behind the decks. Big-name acts and major events keep the calendar busy, making Atlas a solid pick when you want a high-energy Bali party with plenty of people around you.
