The Guvernment Ranked #8 in DJ Mags Top 100 Clubs of 2008
This years installement of DJ Mags Top 50 Clubs has expanded to the Top 100. Guvernment moved up from last year to #8. Stereo in Montreal is sitting at #18. Circa is at #38 but im not sure if thats Torontos Circa or sum other Circa.
The top 10 look like this -
1.Fabric
2.Space
3.Amneisa
4.The End
5.Womb
6.Panorama Bar
7.Pacha
8.Guvernment
9.Warung
10.Watergate
From DJ Mag Blurb - “If there’s one city that loves trance, it’s Toronto,” believes Armin van Buuren. “And if there’s one club that knows how to rock, it’s the Guvernment.”
The laser illuminated synth sound might not be everyone’s bag but recommendations don’t come too much weightier than from the world’s No.1 DJ. Consuming a labyrinth of eight futuristic rooms, with an über-chic roof terrace offering panoramic vistas of downtown Toronto, Guvernment is an emporium of almost unparalleled girth, but it’s not just trance inhabiting its cavernous main arena — Carl Cox, Sasha and Derrick Carter have all appeared.
“I don’t know any other club that pulls those amounts of people all year long,” concludes Armin.

I believe this is the first year that anyone could have voted for the Top Club poll.
All previous years was solely DJs who voted.
I believe Guv was ranked #18 last year..
CiRCA is #38. Here's what is says from DJ Mag:
38. Circa TORONTO, CANADA Capacity: 2800 New Entry
circatoronto.com
The brainchild of NYC club impresario Peter Gatien, Circa is a four-storey complex of 55,000 square feet of pure funk power. Within its labyrinthine confines, the club brings the world’s finest DJs from across the genre divide, with nights like Reconnected blending
house, breaks and drum & bass together across four rooms.
“One of the world’s most vibrant cities has just become that much more so with Circa. This club is one to not just follow, but be
at,” opines John Acquaviva.

I used to bitch about The Guv all the time, but now that I've had the opportunity this year to check out some of the other clubs around the world, I see how truly lucky Toronto is to have such a club.
I agree with Armin about how it's amazing how much crowd the place pulls year-round too.
