Celebrating its 10th anniversary in 2014, Circus Afterhours, as the name implies, is a weird world that happens while most people are asleep.

A hedonistic haven, filled with fire-breathers, leotard-clad acrobats and burlesque dancers, this cavenous club, with its two wild-as-fuck rooms, is a repeat offender in this poll for obvious reasons.

And not just because of well-executed themes and the antics of its performers. James Zabiela, Marco Bailey, Umek, Pleasurekraft and Hernan Cattaneo all commanded Circus' phat Funktion Ones over the past 12 months, coaxing its obsessive crowds to vote in their droves once again.
