Superclub is a term used to refer to a
nightclub owned and managed by an electronic dance music
record label. Following on from Factory Records ownership of
The Hacienda, superclubs became increasingly popular in the
early to mid 1990s, and examples include Gatecrasher,
Godskitchen and The End.
More recently, the term has also been used to describe large, multistory, high-capacity high-profile nightclubs. Notable superclubs include Crobar (Chicago & NY), Vision (Chicago), Sound-Bar (Chicago), The Guvernment (Toronto), Avalon (Boston), 1015 (San Francisco), the Syndicate (U.K.) and others.
