Absolute Banger: INS New Paradise Shanghai
The Future of Global Nightlife is HERE
Alright, let's cut straight to it: What's the most insane club in the world right now?

If your brain still instantly flashes to Berghain's gritty Berlin vibe or Marquee's New York glam, you're sleeping on one of the biggest shifts in global nightlife. The spotlight's moved, and it's now beaming straight onto China. Think ancient traditions meet futuristic energy, all soundtracked by next-level beats. And at the heart of it? Shanghai's INS New Paradise, a club so next-gen, it's basically redefining what a night out means.
If you're even vaguely thinking about travelling to China, diving into its nightlife is non-negotiable. And INS New Paradise? It's not just a club, it's a full-blown immersive playground. Say goodbye to one dance floor and one DJ. This place is a multi-sensory, multi-floor journey into Shanghai's electric soul.
INS New Paradise: More Than a Club. It's a "Nightlife Megaverse"
Located right in the buzz of Shanghai, inside Fuxing Park at 109 Yandang Road, Huangpu District. INS sits in the city's pulsing "night economy" hub. But forget everything you know about standard clubs. This is a six-storey beast blending e-sports, music, performance, food and drinks into one seamless experience.
Walk in and you'll think you've entered some kind of futuristic mall, but by night. We're calling it the "night club mall", and honestly? It fits.
The Real Magic of INS New Paradise:
- SEVEN different themed clubs and bars across six floors
- Seven completely different vibes under one roof, like clubbing across seven nights, in one.
- From e-sports parties, European-style DJ sets to niche cultural scenes, each floor takes you deeper
- A 2077-inspired "Oriental Future City"
- 200,000 monthly visitors
- All-Access Pass
Speaking of tickets—the All-Access Pass (with drinks included) is an absolute game-changer. Ditch the old pay-per-entry model. This pass unlocks every floor, every venue, and usually comes with a free drink. It’s proper value, total freedom, and the reason this place pulls in Shanghai’s coolest crowds.
In fact, INS New Paradise draws around 200,000 visitors a month. It’s not just a club, it’s a youth culture hub. A statement. And if you’re planning a visit, a quick heads-up: weekend passes (Fri/Sat) cost more than midweek ones, so check official sites or platforms like Klook for live pricing and deals.
