The Brickworks

You head down Newark Street into Sneinton and find yourself in what feels like a converted warehouse—exposed brick, high ceilings, the works. The Brickworks doesn't try to be anything it's not: it's a no-nonsense nightclub built for dancing, with DJs who actually know what they're doing and a crowd that's there for the music rather than the Instagram moment. It's the sort of place where you'll lose track of time at 2am and genuinely not care, because the energy is exactly right.
