Hollywood Clubs
Top Hollywood Dance Nightclubs
!
Here are the top Hollywood clubs and nightclubs. The best and hottest dance clubs are located on the
Sunset Strip in West Hollywood.
But there are also great nightspots for dancing on Hollywood Boulevard. In fact the whole town is loaded with clubs. Some are better than others though.
Some of these hot Hollywood clubs for dancing are hard to get into, so here are some tips to make it easier to get past the rope line.
Come looking gorgeous and dressed to kill so to speak. Have a great attitude and bring money to impress (tip) the big goons who decide who they'll let past the velvet ropes.
Hollywood clubs elsewhere are easier to get into. But you need to be 21, and picture ID is required to get into any club in Los Angeles and Southern California that serves alcohol.
Cover charges are between $5 to $20 (or more). The doors open from 9PM and close at 2 PM.
