Bigger is better

Does the Bell Center count?

Smaller venues.

IMO better to chill out with your buddies while listening to some tunes.

Love those smaller TA events

Smaller venues. Easily. They have the better vibe.

It's actually funny this thread was brought up. Over the weekend I was thinking what it would be like if Toronto's nightlife went in the direction of smaller parties. Imagine the city without places like Guvernment, but in it's place 10 or more places around the city that each offer a unique vibe, and a smaller capacity. It'd be a bit of a problem with big DJ's (seeing as we're all DJ whores in one way or another) but I think it would be really interesting to see a bunch of clubs, each with a loyal following.

Although big venues have those massive crowd with hands in the air moments.

when i first started partying/clubbinb/raving/whatever u want to call it, you could always find me in KH or the Guv. But now being in my 3rd year, i prefer smaller venues (such as the drink or gallery). I think this has gone with my change in music preference going from the big room sound to darker, tribal-electro-house

id have to say there is a time for both. they each have their pro's and con's.

I find smaller clubs actually have more room than the Guv

Smaller venues are better, in my opinion. They are a lot more intimate than larger venues. And you don't have to walk around for 45 minutes looking for your friends.

FootWork is the perfect sized club.

Oh without a doubt. Some of the best moments of my partying "career" have been in big rooms. I gotta say though that as I get older, I prefer the smaller places.

i think that when you are going with a large group of people the big room experiance is more appropriate. But when you are going with 1 -2 other people its more fun to have a little club where you will get to know the people around you and enjoy that special vibe.

Best venue ever.


Posted by me@t k@tie on Jan-16-2007 04:33:

Some larger venues are good though. I had an amazing experience at the Bell Centre on NYE.

Lawler in Charlies was pretty damn good however...

I guess I'm torn.

"Depends on the party" is my official answer.

Yep.. depends on the DJ, city, party.. so many things to consider.

I agree with this. I think it also depends on the genre: trance suits a larger venue, whereas house and techno (usually) suit a smaller venue. That being said, with house and techno, it still depends on the party. However, IMO there are very few techno or house DJs that would suit a bigger venue rather than a smaller venue. Carl Cox is one that comes to mind.
