Golden Gate Berlin

Nestled beneath the Jannowitzbrücke train stop, Golden Gate is one of Berlin's grittiest clubs. The interior is small, dark and mostly free of decoration. It's known for having exceptionally long operating hours, even for Berlin—most weeks there's one party on Thursday night that finishes on Friday afternoon, then a second one that starts on Friday at midnight and lasts until Monday morning. The club consists of one main dance floor, a small sitting area, a bathroom section upstairs and a small garden in the summer. The music is mostly up-front tech house, usually by Berlin-based DJs.
