DJ Mag Top100 Clubs

Circa

Saying Peter Gatien knows a thing or two about clubs is a bit like saying Alex Ferguson knows his way round a football pitch. Thirty years in the game and a former owner of iconic New York haunts Limelight and The Tunnel, his latest wonder is Toronto's Circa - a vast abyss of futuristic design.

Given Gatien's former links with Andy Warhol, the venue's surreal artistic touches are no surprise with the bright installations of the Kid Robot room and a ceramic covered 'Bath' room just two of the weird and wonderful spaces in Circa's labyrinth.

But it is the titanic main arena that is the centerpiece and names like Cut Copy, Justice, Digitalism, Diplo and Simian Mobile Disco have all rocked it there.
