The 17 Best Nightclubs in Tokyo (2026)
Seventeen Tokyo nightclubs for a VIP table in 2026, from Zouk Tokyo in Ginza and WARP Shinjuku in Kabukicho to WOMB in Shibuya and the Roppongi clubs.
Why we wrote this guide
Tokyo's club nights begin late and finish near dawn. Across the seventeen clubs below, most doors open at 22:00 or 23:00 and most rooms play on until 04:30 or 05:00. They sit in Roppongi and Azabujuban, Ginza, Shibuya and Shinjuku, with three of them in Kabukicho.
Four carry DJ Mag Top 100 Clubs placings: Zouk Tokyo (No. 51 in 2026), WARP Shinjuku (No. 73 in 2026), WOMB (No. 88 in 2026) and ZEROTOKYO (No. 87 in 2025). Around them sit Roppongi rooms built for table service, a basement club in Azabujuban with a long roll of headline guests, and Harlem, a Shibuya hip-hop club open since 1997.
The door matters here. At most of these clubs entry is 20 and over with photo ID checked at the door, so carry a passport or other photo ID, and several doors turn away sandals, tank tops and sportswear.
