Galvanised by dance allies like Exile and Bassment, the medieval castle of Belgrade’s Barutana surely commands Serbia’s clubbing crown. Hosting a raft of cross-genre international DJs, Barutana’s centerpiece is undoubtedly its open-air dancefloor — set beautifully within the castle walls.

“Barutana’s clubbers are refreshingly open-minded when it comes to their dance music,” claims Craig Morrison of Silicone Soul. “The party doesn’t really get started until 4am and there’s nothing quite like 2000 smiling faces greeting you come sunrise.”
