Oxygen gets you high and there's plenty of it in AIR.

Founded four years ago by Sandar Groet, alongside partners Niels de Geus and Sjoerd Wynia, in a city rightfully regarded as one of the world's clubbing capitals, this is one of the few clubs in this poll constructed entirely from scratch as a dance venue.

Previously the grounds of The 'Dam's famous iT venue during the late '90s, the building was demolished completely to make way for a club that later became AIR. Hence, these flexible rooms are some of the most modern we've ever laid eyes on.

Just as capable of creating a steely warehouse vibe as a warm, lounge-like effect, AIR's three artfully designed spaces have hosted everybody from Matthew Dear to Martin Garrix in recent months, coming alive during ADE with showcases for Defected and All Gone Pete Tong, among many others.
