Vics & Mix
At the north gate of the Workers Stadium, the bars give way to some of Beijing's
longest-running clubs. Neither Vics ( 威克斯 ; Fri & Sat ¥50; 7pm-late; Dongsishitiao)
nor Mix ( 密克斯 ; admission ¥50; 8pm-late; Dongsi Shitiao) are the most sophisticated
nightclubs in the world, but they pump out a similar soundtrack of party hip-hop and
R&B and are consistently busy. Solo travellers: if you can't score here, you never
will.
Cargo
If house and techno are more your thing, then try Cargo (6 Gongrenti-yuchang Xilu; 工人
体育场西路 6 号 ; admission ¥50; 8pm-late; Chaoyangmen) , which flies in big-name
international DJs and caters to an enthusiastic locals-dominated crowd. It's on a strip
of dance clubs, so you can club-hop here if you wish.
